A 26-year-old guy in Arizona was recently about to jump off an overpass onto a busy highway. But a cop showed up on the scene and was able to talk him down by offering him a hug.
It happened back in March, but the chest-cam footage was just posted online. The cop, Ron little, first radioed in and told everyone else to stay off the bridge. He didn't want to scare the guy. Ron he told the man his name and offered to give him a hug if he climbed back over the fence. He kept talking about the hug for another five minutes or so. The guy eventually climbed back over and got a big hug, as promised.
