M25 Closed both directions

Hyburnate · 6 Sep 2013 at 18:50

Been closed in both directions at Dartford Crossing due to a man 'acting suspiciously'. God knows whats going on :eek:

Sky News:

A spokesman for Kent Police said a "suspicious item" had been found on the bridge, while a man who was "behaving unusually" has been arrested.

The crossing is expected to be closed for some time, with drivers urged to find alternative routes.

Illegal immigrant...

Probably nothing, like when they closed the M6 because someone was using an e-cig on a bus.

That was lucky I was comming down the A12 at about 4ish, must have just missed the chaos

It's probably nothing.

Or a sub-machine gun.

On a bridge, probably suicide.
They shut th m5 avonmount bridge a couple of years ago for hour,10s of Hurd and the **** didn't even jump.

So I'm guessing something similar if it is a bridge.

Or maybe not as bomb disposal is there. Let me guess over hyped, and probably just had a stressful day.

Fair enough, but I don't see the relevance or what point you are trying to make? After all statistically speaking, it's highly probable he was (given this incident happened in England).

yes you are right, statistically he should be English, but he won't be. Unless maybe it's a troubled individual who had tired to kill himself and accidently closed a motorway.

If you have an iPad you can use the Sky News App and view the live chopper

And yes, they're turning the vehicles around.

That would be inhumane.
