A bridge in Catskill

Police are saying that a New York man running to the aid of another motorist fell to his death from a bridge.

It seems the fellow, 44-year old Kevin Ryan, didn't know there was a large gap between the lanes.

Ryan was traveling on Route 23 in the town of Catskill, 30 miles south of Albany, at around 10:45 p.m. on Sunday evening.

Ryan noticed a vehicle overturned in the opposite lane. He then jumped over a concrete barrier not knowing there was a 17-foot wide gap between the eastbound and westbound lanes of the bridge.

Police say he fell nearly 50 feet to the rocks and concrete below. He was already dead when he got to the hospital.

There is no word about the passenger of the other car.

The parable of the Good Samaritan.
