Not your typical basin bridge traffic jam

LINK

quote:

One lane on the westbound side just west of Ramah in Iberville Parish is closed. Emergency vehicles could be seen in the state traffic camera looking at the scene.

The Iberville Parish Sheriff's Office is working the situation. Investigators were just arriving on the scene when they confirmed the death to WBRZ Wednesday before 11:30 a.m.

Sources identified the person as a man that had been driving erratically down the Interstate, waiving a gun before he shot himself in the head.

As if there isn't enough traffic issues, should just push the dude and his car into the water and call it a day.

You should edit title and say suicide. It wasn't like somebody got road rage and killed someone. Some idiot offed himself and to boot caused a huge problem for the thousands of normal people that have places to go.

Yep. Wanna off yourself then don't do it on a 2-lane bridge that already has traffic issues.

Oh no... I don't feel sorry for him at all.... The place he did it is sad... People that aren't gonna off themselves are just driving along and now they have to sit there for hours and hours why not just flip the dude over the bridge and be done with it..Open traffic and back to normal......

It's always something on that bridge. Watch... Now crawfish prices will go up .50/lb in Breaux Bridge.
