ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) - Authorities say two women jumped from the towering Sunshine Skyway bridge in St. Petersburg during morning rush hour. One of them survived the fall. Authorities say a woman in her 40s parked her car at the center span, left a suicide note and jumped from the bridge at around 7:20a.m. She hit the rocks below and didn't survive. About an hour and a half later, a woman in her 80s parked her car at the south end, left a note and jumped off. She was still alive when the Coast Guard found her in the water.
