Metropolitan Police spokesman Larry Hadfield said Metro received a call about 3 p.m. concerning a man who jumped off the bridge.

The Clark County coroner’s office will release the man’s name when next of kin have been notified.

The man is the ninth person to jump off the bridge since it was completed in 2010.
