All southbound traffic on Hwy. 100 is being diverted off onto the ramp to 42nd Avenue in Robbinsdale as police deal with an unfolding situation involving a person on the overpass. Word is a person has threatened to jump.
Traffic begins slowing at France Avenue. This will be there for a while, so an alternate route is in order.
