The southbound Twin Bridge in Henderson was closed for an hour this morning.
Around 2:30 a passerby noticed a potential jumper and called 9-1-1.
Two Henderson County Deputies responded to the sensitive situation.
EFD’s water rescue team was called in for mutual aid.
One deputy kept the man calm while the other negotiated with him not to jump.
After an hour, the man was detained and arrested for an outstanding warrant.
The man suffers from mental illness and will be evaluated.
