Sacramento crews search river after suspect enters water near Tower Bridge
A search for a suspected bicycle thief who jumped into the Sacramento River near the Tower Bridge is now a recovery operation, officials said Friday.
Sacramento police said officers responded just after 7:30 a.m. to a report of a stolen bicycle near K and J streets.
Officers found the suspect, but police said he jumped into the river as they tried to catch him.
Sacramento Fire Department crews searched the water after the man did not resurface.
Fire officials later said the operation had shifted to a recovery and was turned over to law enforcement.
