I'm sure they're just helpful members of the Religion of Peace, about to hold a bake sale for an orphanage or something. . . .

Fox 5 news saying they REPELLED off the bridge when confronted. This was the term they used, as if they slid down ropes from the superstructure?

I'm sure they were just painting the name of their sweethearts on the brige to declare their undying love. (At least that's the way we do it here in the South;^)

Fox 5 news saying they REPELLEDHaven't heard that terminology yet, but just switched to Fox 5. Reporters say the men are in custody. Apparently there are "suspicious packages" being searched for. Helicopters flying at low altitude to inspect.
