Police Standoff Shuts Down Walt Whitman Bridge

An armed man continues to keep authorities at bay on the

Walt Whitman Bridge.

The Walt Whitman Bridge between South Philadelphia and

Gloucester City, N.J., has been closed since about 4:30

p.m.

New Jersey State Police Capt. Al Della Fave says troopers

tried to stop a vehicle for a minor speeding violation, but

the driver wouldn't pull over. He says troopers stopped the

pursuit after a few minutes because the man was driving

erratically and police feared someone would get hurt. After

that, the driver stopped on the bridge.

State police say the driver got out of the car and smashed

the windows.

He's believed to be armed with a gun and a baseball bat and

he has a woman and baby with him.

Delaware River Port Authority police have stopped traffic

in both directions. Many vehicles are stuck.

We'll have more information as it becomes available.
