Police Incident on the Lion's Gate Bridge

I've been told by my daughter that the same day that the Patullo Bridge was closed, for six hours; there was also another jump off the Lion's Gate Bridge on Oct 5. This is how it is usually reported in the news, just to make you aware that when a bridge is closed due to "police incident" it is because of a desperate person on the verge of taking their lives.
