LEWISBURG, Pa. Wednesday was a typical day on the job at the Buffalo Valley Regional Police Department for Cpl. Travis Burrows until he got a call about a crash. Someone crashed into the Market Street Bridge, climbed over the railing, and jumped into the Susquehanna River in Lewisburg. I was able to get a different vantage point and see a person floating down the water, and at the time, they were just limp, Cpl. Burrows recalled.
