A Pickerington man says he is planning to jump again after being convicted of parachuting off a radio tower at Ohio State University last week. James Hare was sentenced to probation and a fine yesterday after pleading no contest to charges of skydiving from the 829-foot tower. Hare asked for permission to jump after his court hearing.
