A woman was detained under the Mental Health Act after police and the fire service were called to Bristol city centre last night (November 25).
Colston Street was closed to both vehicles and pedestrians following the incident that happened at around 5.30pm.
An eyewitness told Bristol Live that the closure caused gridlock on Upper Maudlin Street, with a fire engine stationed at the top by the Colston Arms and another next to Zero Degrees.
