Authorities say a "reasonably reliable" witness claims he spoke with an unidentified man who talked of jumping off the bridge.
Police say the witness said he was about ten feet from the man when he saw him jump over the rail and heard a splash.
Authorities are checking possible leads.
E-M-S officials say the search was called off tonight because the current in the river was too strong.
The search will resume in the morning.

April in Virginia brings a test for Governor Jim Gilmore.
The Governor says he WILL recognize the month for its Civil War significance-- but he's working on the right wording.

George Allen's proclamation called on all Virginians to reflect on the "honorable sacrifices" of Confederate leaders in their struggle for the "cause of liberty."
