A New York man dies after jumping into the Harlem River

A man died Saturday after jumping into the Harlem River, officials said.

Water units from the FDNY and NYPD were deployed after reports of a person in the river near the northern edge of the 25-acre waterfront Roberto Clemente State Park in the Bronx around 12:25 p.m., police said.

“He jumped into the Harlem River,” a department spokeswoman said Saturday afternoon.

The man, who was not immediately identified, was brought to shore from the river, police officers said.

A waiting ambulance took him to New York-Presbyterian Allen Hospital, where he was later pronounced dead, an NYPD spokeswoman said.
