Rescue services spokeswoman Viktorija Sembele says her department received a call at 1:40 a.m. Tuesday that a man had jumped from the bridge. Police began an investigation. Police spokesman Tom Sadovskis said Friday police had "suspicions" the man on the bridge had been Pelss, but declined to say why or give further information.

NEW YORK -- For the better part of a season-long 11-game homestand, the New York Mets played as if they would rather not take the All-Star Break. But a spate of bad news means the four-day vacation cant get here fast enough for the Mets, who are again in danger of losing considerable ground to the Washington Nationals in the National League East.The Mets and Nationals will play the third game of a four-game series Saturday night, when the two division rivals square off at Citi Field.The teams have split the first two games and Washington ensured it would enter the All-Star Break atop the NL East with a 3-1 win Friday night.Weve got two more games to go, Nationals manager Dusty Baker said. I just asked the guys, Give me all youve got. Then you can take a break.The loss was just the second in nine games for the Mets, but it was a costly one as their two best players, -- All-Star outfielder Yoenis Cespedes and All-Star right-handed pitcher Noah Syndergaard left with injuries. Cespedes suffered a right quad strain in the third inning while Syndergaard was pulled due to arm fatigue after 4 2/3 inningsSyndergaard, the Mets ace, exited hours after New York announced Opening Day starter Matt Harvey would undergo season-ending surgery to repair thoracic outlet syndrome.Its hard to walk into this room, because the conversation is about who got hurt tonight, Mets manager Terry Collins said. Im a little tired of talking about it, but that s my job to talk about it. But Im running out of things too say and were running out of bodies.dddddddddddd.Harveys usual turn in the rotation comes up Saturday, when right-hander Logan Verrett steps in and draws the task of going against Nationals ace right-hander Max Scherzer. It will be just the 10th career start for Verrett.We feel for (Harvey), hes a big part of our team, Verrett told reporters Friday. Im excited about the opportunity. I know Im not Matt Harvey. Im Logan Verrett.Scherzer, who was named to the All-Star team Friday as a replacement for teammate Stephen Strasburg, has allowed one run or fewer in five of his last six starts, a stretch in which he has gone 3-2 with a 1.83 ERA to lower his overall ERA from 3.87 to 3.21.On Saturday night, Scherzer will be pitching on the mound where he authored his second no-hitter of the 2015 season last Oct. 3, when he struck out 17, walked none and allowed just one baserunner in a 2-0 win over the Mets.Still, while the pitching matchup appears to favor the Nationals, Baker knows better than to assume anything will come easy in a series in which the first two games have lasted a combined six hours and 56 minutes and a handful of double switches between Baker and Collins.Coming in here, we knew it was a big series, Baker said. You could tell how Terry s managing over there and how we re managing over here that we all know this is a very big series for both teams. ' ' '
