Got stuck in traffic at the bridge:
"Man is charged in bridge standoff
SAN FRANCISCO — A California man accused of halting traffic on the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge and threatening to blow it up is scheduled to be arraigned tomorrow on multiple crimes. Prosecutors charged 51-year-old Craig Carlos-Valentino of Antioch on Friday with making a false bomb threat, resisting or delaying a California Highway Patrol officer, kidnapping, and child endangerment. Authorities say he was distraught over family problems when he stopped his SUV Thursday and made the threat (AP)."
