With the help of the Michigan State Police, 13 semi truck drivers lined the highway going both ways after a call was made about a man considering suicide. The trucks were lined up so that if the man jumped, he wouldn't have far to fall. Luckily the man decided to walk off the overpass after hours of negotiations with the police. He was taken to a nearby hospital for evaluation.
