For those frequent North Island photogs, I hope you wern't there today as the Coronado Brdge was closed for about 3and 1/2 hours and everyone leaving Coronado, Including myself had to drive around the Strand. Some disturbed individual  ??? decided he wanted to Jump off the center span. He Did not and gave up to the CHP.   :-\ :o 

I caught this Northwest Airlines 747 sitting around tring to soak up some very limitted sunshine today

Here is the story about the individual who tried to jump off the Coronado Bridge in San Diego on 12/02/08

Woman threatens to jump from bridge, jamming I-5

December 3, 2008

SAN DIEGO – A distraught woman gave up to police negotiators yesterday after threatening to leap from the San Diego Coronado Bridge, which was closed to traffic for more than four hours.



While officers tried to persuade the woman to surrender, afternoon commuters trying to leave or get into Coronado were detoured onto the Silver Strand. Southbound traffic on Interstate 5 was jammed between Mission Hills and Chula Vista.
Witnesses reported to the California Highway Patrol about 1:45 p.m. that a woman was running up the bridge from the east end in San Diego. A few minutes later, she was sitting on the railing. A San Diego police negotiator was called, and the bridge was closed to traffic.

Hundreds of commuters caught on the bridge were guided by CHP officers to make U-turns and return the way they had come, said CHP Officer Brad Baehr.

The woman surrendered about 5:10 p.m. and was taken to a hospital for evaluation. Motorists were allowed back on the bridge by 6 p.m. –P.R.
