  The brane world scenario is a new approach to resolve the problem on how to
compactify the higher dimensional spacetime to our 4-dimensional world. One of
the remarkable features of this scenario is the higher dimensional effects in
classical gravitational interactions at short distances. Due to this feature,
there are black string solutions in our 4-dimensional world. In this paper,
assuming the simplest model of complex minimally coupled scalar field with the
local U(1) symmetry, we show a possibility of black-string formation by merging
processes of type I long cosmic strings in our 4-dimensional world. No fine
tuning for the parameters in the model might be necessary.
