The man who jumped from the Black Warrior Parkway toll bridge and posted a video of the action on the Internet could face a federal citation and be ordered to repay the county for the hours-long search its rescuers conducted Sunday night.

A 911 caller reported seeing a man jump from the 110-foot-high bridge at about 3:30 p.m. Rescue agencies feared someone had committed suicide, and launched a massive search of the banks and the river bottom. They had planned to resume the search Monday.

But Monday morning, authorities found a video of the jump posted to YouTube. The video includes shots from the jumper’s head-mounted camera and shots taken by a second person on the riverbank.

Tuscaloosa County Sheriff’s Office investigators identified the suspect Monday after viewing the video, which includes the jumper’s name.

Sheriff’s Office spokesman Sgt. Andy Norris said the department has asked the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to assist in issuing a federal citation to the man. The jumper broke a federal law that states: “Any act or conduct by any person which interferes with, impedes or disrupts the use of a project or impairs the safety of any person is prohibited,” Norris said. There is no similar state law.

“We intend to ask our local legislative delegation to implement a law that would address this very situation — people jumping from bridges into waterways and tying up resources when it’s a non-emergency,” he said.

The Sheriff’s Office wants the man to perform community service or repay the county for the man-hours, equipment and fuel used in the search, he said.

Personnel from the Tuscaloosa Fire and Rescue Service, the Tuscaloosa Police Department and the Sheriff’s Office combed the river bank and used divers to search underwater while a helicopter searched from above.
