    UPDATE: Police say the man has agreed to come down and is now in police custody. It's unclear if he will face charges at this time.

    The interstate has been reopened at the scene.

    This will also cost the state millions in the years to come by having to install gates around the signs where they meet the ground to prevent the two legged animals from climbing them. If he falls he will sue and probably won for not blocking access to climb.

    Dude had the most insane upper body strength I'd ever seen. He came down on his own and BRPD, BRFD and EMS handled it beautifully. Hopefully he gets the help he needs.
