Suicidal Subject Threatening to Jump from Bixby Bridge

Source: Monterey County Fire & EMS
Bixby Creek Bridge, CA-1, Monterey, CA 93940, USA
Summary: A male subject, diagnosed with bipolar disorder, ADHD, and depression, made threats to kill himself and claimed he would either drive his vehicle into a wall or jump off a bridge. He has a history of suicide attempts, including a prior attempt at the Golden Gate Bridge. The subject was last seen in a red 2005 Ford Escape, with law enforcement tracking his movements from Fresno to Monterey County. Updates indicated he may be heading to or at Bixby Bridge, possibly influenced by a friend's prior suicide at that location. The subject conducted online searches about jumping from Bixby Bridge. Law enforcement and state parks were notified, and his last known location was south on Highway 1, south of Rio Road.
