ALBANY - Traffic on Interstate 90 near Exit 5 was backed up for about an hour Friday morning after some drivers saw a man sitting on the fence of an overpass.
Police say the man in his 20s was wearing just pajama pants, no shirt and no shoes.
Parts of I-90 and Everett Road were closed while police worked to talk the man down and get him safely into an ambulance.
The man was taken to Albany Medical Center for a mental evaluation.
