An armed man who threatened to jump off the George Washington Bridge, forcing the closure of all upper level lanes, was detained on Friday, according to a police source.
Sources said the man was armed, and handed over the firearm to on-scene officials.
Officers detained by 11 a.m., police said.
All upper level lanes of the George Washington Bridge were closed due to police activity around 10:20 a.m.
About 40 minutes later, the ordeal appeared to be over and two lanes heading to New Jersey were opened.
