Prosecutor weighing charges in jumper's death

TWIN FALLS (AP) - Twin Falls County sheriff's deputies handed prosecutors their investigation into the death of a 73-year-old BASE jumper who leaped from an Idaho bridge with his parachute on fire.

But Twin Falls County Prosecutor Grant Loebs said he wants more information from the sheriff's office before deciding whether to file charges in James Hickey's death.

The California man died May 7 after falling from the Perrine Bridge into the Snake River, 500 feet below. Authorities said Hickey set his parachute on fire as part of a stunt. The coroner said Hickey died of blunt-force trauma.

Loebs said Friday the two brief pages with not a lot of information were turned over Wednesday and that he needs more. He says he plans to meet with the sheriff next week.
