On January 28, 2024, at approximately 03:13 hours, Sergeant Weir responded to a welfare concern involving an individual sitting on the overpass ledge near I-35 Southbound at the 459 mile marker. Upon arrival, Officers observed the subject rocking back and forth on the ledge. Due to her body positioning and the object in her arms, Officers believed she was preparing to jump from the overpass and that she may have been holding a small child.

Recognizing the imminent threat to human life, Sergeant Weir ensured traffic lanes were clear to prevent secondary hazards and immediately maneuvered across the center median to approach the subject from the rear. As other Officers approached from the opposite direction, Sergeant Weir closed the distance, wrapped both arms around the subject, and forcefully pulled her away from the overpass ledge and to the ground, preventing her from jumping.

The subject was safely detained without injury. Subsequent investigation confirmed she was not holding a child; however, at the time of intervention, Sergeants reasonably believed both the subject and a potential child were at immediate risk of death.

Sergeant Weir's decisive action, physical courage, situational awareness, and willingness to place himself in danger were directly responsible for preventing the loss of life.

In recognition of these heroic actions, Chief Robb presented Sgt. Weir with a Life Saving Award at last night's City Council meeting. Congratulations, Sgt. Weir!

Vandalism is not a victimless crime; it affects every community member's ability to enjoy public resources, and places an undue burden on the workers who supply and maintain this equipment.

If you have any information regarding this incident, or observe any other instances of vandalism, please report it to the Lake Dallas Police Department.
