An 18-year-old high schooler has died in the city of Hiroshima after jumping off the Hiroshima Hatsukaiichi Ohashi bridge into Hiroshima Bay with another boy to impress his friends, police said Thursday.
Hironori Ishihara was pronounced dead early Thursday shortly after being found below the 27-meter-high, 835-meter-long bridge.
