NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — The Korean Veterans Boulevard Bridge is now reopened after a man climbed over the roadway on Monday and shut down the bridge.
While the bridge was shut down, the man climbed down and went on the other side of the train tracks and took off.
Police said they placed the man in custody around 8 a.m. It is uncertain whether he will face any charges.

I LOVE Forrest's stories on the history of NewsChannel 5 as we celebrate our 70th anniversary. Here's a story I wasn't familiar with until recently. Eudora Boxley had a live cooking show in the early days of the station. She may have been the first black on air at NewsChannel 5 and perhaps, one of the first African Americans to have a TV cooking show anywhere in the country. It wasn't until her grandson reached out to me that I even heard of Ms. Boxley. Thankfully, I was able to connect him with Forest to learn more about this great nugget in NewsChannel 5 history.
