The Hawthorne Bridge reopened to traffic Friday morning after a man who’d climbed up a bridge tower the previous evening finally descended. The man — later identified as 44-year-old Rashawn L. Anderson — had climbed up the west tower toward the 400-ton counterweight mechanism on the downtown end of the bridge around 5 p.

A man was arrested after holing up in one of the towers on Hawthorne Bridge overnight, causing an hours-long traffic nightmare.
