(BELL COUNTY) 

 The Bell County Sheriff’s Office asked drivers to avoid the merge for IH35 and IH14. About 11:30 yesterday

Belton Police Department officers and a Bell County Sheriff’s deputy helped safely resolve a tense circumstance yesterday morning.   The Police Department and the City of Belton, a man experienced a mental health crisis on the Interstate 14 flyover exit off northbound Interstate 35. Officers helped diffuse the situation after the man got out of a car at a nearby business, walked to the flyover, and placed both of his legs over the guardrail appearing ready to jump.

 

“We are grateful for this outcome and that our officers helped calmly resolve the matter,” Belton Police Chief Larry Berg said. “We train to be ready to help people in distress, but in these types of circumstances, a person must be willing to help themselves too. In this situation, it worked out. We hope the young man gets the help and support that he needs.”

Police and the city say the incident lasted for an hour and a half. The 9-1-1 call came in at around 10:30 a.m., and the individual was off the ledge by noon. The man was not injured, but he was transported to a medical facility for mental health treatment.

The Troy Police Department stated in a press release that officers saw two four-door vehicles speeding at 108 MPH southbound in Troy at the 310-mile marker at 12:30 a.m. on Sunday, Feb. 2.

The car then attempted to drive northbound on the southbound side of I-35 at the entrance ramp near Industrial Boulevard in Temple, Texas. A Troy police car forced the vehicle off the highway, preventing potentially deadly collisions from happening.

The suspects inside the car then exited the vehicle and started running away from officers. Police said the suspects headed into an area west of I-35.

According to the press release, investigators located weapons and drugs. Three people were arrested after assistance from the Temple Police Department, Bell County Sheriff’s Office and Lorena Police Department led to the finding of the second car involved in the high-speed chase.

Nobody was injured during this incident. Troy PD is investigating the incident.
