A suicidal person prompted the closure of a stretch of I-29 in Fargo for two hours Monday evening.  Law enforcement were notified of the individual on the 45th overpass around 5:45 p.m.  Traffic was rerouted.  The situation was successfully resolved around 7:45 p.m. and traffic returned to normal.

Westbound traffic was diverted north and south onto Interstate 29 and eastbound traffic was routed onto Veteran’s Boulevard.
During this time there was a minor injury crash that occurred on Interstate 94 eastbound near exit 346 (Sheyenne Street) in which a driver was arrested for driving under the influence of drugs. This crash resulted in additional traffic delays on Interstate 94.
