Wife (no pics) texted me and said interstate is closed, jumper on bridge. I don't see it anywhere in the news or on social media, all I see is a wreck on google maps. I know the OT would know whats going on, right?

Stand down.

Nobody has ever gotten off that bridge in less than 10 minutes.

Looking at previous tweets they use “accident” for wrecks

Somebody get out and push him so traffic can start moving.

It’s not like you can park somewhere nearby and walk up there.

This person had to have come to a stop and got out blocking a lane with their vehicle.

Sad situation honestly.

So they are calling it an incident, not an accident. Our daughters dance studio gets alerts and the message they sent out was it was a jumper and interstate closed. Glad they at least got the 2 lanes open.

Thx LSUJML

Its getting a little ridiculous with news headlines and updates using words like "incidents". Its like they want to treat grown arse adults like children. If its a suicide, say its a fricking suicide, if its a shooter say its a fricking shooter, if its an accident say its a fricking accident. The general public and grown adults deserve details and actual information.

This is exactly how I’d want to go out - mildly inconveniencing thousands of people - kiss my arse I added 60 min to your commute

He didn't ask for the bridge to shut down. Let the man go about his business in peace.

Do you think he'd mind cars passing by if it's going to jump.

Traffic is flowing on the bridge at the moment.

I remember when the PETA fanatics climbed up in the superstructure and chained themselves to the bridge while hanging a big banner. Shut down the entire bridge. They should have thrown those frickers off the bridge into the river.

It only takes about four seconds between jump and water, according to Sleater-Kinney, so traffic should be moving soon,
