PASADENA — Police officials may have prevented a suicide Wednesday on the Colorado Street Bridge, authorities said.
A police officer driving on the 134 Freeway and a police park safety specialist noticed a Manhattan Beach man in his 30s climbing the fencing along the bridge, which hangs more than 100 feet above the Arroyo Seco, about 12:30 p.m., Pasadena police Lt. Tom Delgado said.
When the man saw officials approaching, he climbed back onto the bridge, Delgado said. He was taken for psychological evaluation.
