It's like a life-or-death movie scene, captured on a patrol car's dashcam and reported by Bisi Onile-Eer of WDIV .
A despondent man climbed onto a Joy Road overpass high above northbound I-275 as a Canton policer officer tried to talk him down Sunday night. The WDIV reporter picks up the story:
When the officer was close enough, he lunged forward and grabbed the man by his coat, pulling him off the rail.
He was taken to a hospital for evaluation.
Canton Public Safety says the officer's quick reaction saved the man's life.
A video from the police car's dashboard camera is at the link below.
