CHP: Teen's Golden Gate leap not suicide attempt

SAN FRANCISCO

CHP Officer Chris Rardin says the 17-year-old boy who jumped during a class field trip Thursday should be charged with trespassing for climbing on the bridge.

He told The Press Democrat of Santa Rosa he was not at liberty to say where the boy was hospitalized or in what condition.

Surfer Chris Paicos told KGO-TV he witnessed the jump. He said the boy told him as he swam by in the water that the jump was a stunt.
