5 Freeway Problems

5 Freeway between Alameda and Olive, southbound side all jammed up. Police have shut down both sides of the freeway. Police are turning commuters around on the southbound. Talking to Brent, a commuter eyewitness, who said Verdugo Overpass has a jumper presently sitting on the bridge threatening to jump. Another caller, Martin, said he was on the 5 but was eventually able to get off the freeway. // #DirectBuyers.com. Traffic on the 5 around Burbank still bad, freeway shut down due to the man threatening to jump. Teen bikers assaulting people in LA. LA cracking down on “video-game-style driving,” more police presence. Traffic report. // Big problems in Burbank! Thanks to a guy hanging out on overpass hanging out, it’s all jammed up. CHP rolling out new style of vehicle to blend into traffic to combat “video-game-style driving.” // Look Ahead. The 5 is still closed, due to a guy standing on Olive Overpass at Burbank. Empire Center is a good place to go if you’re stuck in the area due to the freeway being closed. 134 to 210 is pretty clear. Southbound on the 5 is good, too.
