The man who jumped to his death from an I-85 bridge during Friday's evening rush hour has been identified as 26-year-old Michael Clay.

Clay suffered from schizophrenia and had been in and out of hospitals his entire life, according to family members in Michigan. His family had not heard from him in two months, since he lived in a halfway house in Jackson, Mich.
