A section of the A63 was closed last night, after a man threatened to jump from a nearby bridge. The road was closed between the Livingstone Road turn off and Humberfield turn-off just after 8pm.
The man was on a bridge near the San Luca restaurant. Police were called to the scene and shut a section of the A63 for safety reasons. British Transport Police also suspended trains running on the track alongside the carriageway.
Officers managed to talk the man to safety at 9.30pm. Trains were resumed at 10.30pm and the road was reopened.
