Cops walk homeless woman with bag on head off busy Seattle bridge: 'Just another day in Emerald City'

 Witnesses said woman was wearing plastic bag on her head and carrying a 'sack full of vegetation'

A homeless woman with a plastic bag over her head was spotted last week dangling her legs from a busy bridge during the evening commute on I-5 in Seattle, according to witnesses.

"SEATTLE PROBLEMS," Discovery Institute senior fellow and journalist Jonathan Choe tweeted Friday. "This bizarre encounter happened on I-5 Thursday during a busy evening commute in [Seattle.]"

Choe also posted video of the incident, which he said witnesses claimed was a homeless woman wearing "a clear plastic bag on her head and carrying [a] sack full of vegetation."

"Cops showed up and tried to talk her off the ledge," Choe said. "She was also swinging some type of metal object. Just another day in the Emerald City."

Choe went on to say that police successfully walked the woman off the ledge and that the situation was apparently resolved with no injuries.

"There are still dozens of encampments on WSDOT properties in Seattle," he added. "Ask any commuter. I see homeless people constantly crossing busy highways or walking in the breakdown lanes daily."
