A 26-year-old man from Sulphur was arrested for skateboarding on Bridge 210, authorities say. “I wanted to bring back the story, yes, to recreate it,” said Louis C. McGlone, who skated on the bridge. I was hoping to recreate a video from the 1970s, when another skateboarder also shot on I-210. McGlone was arrested Thursday morning on charges of aggravated obstruction of a trade road. He has since been released on a $10,000 bond. “He was the man, shirtless, without shoes. Skating over Bridge 210,” McGlone said, a video of the act was posted on McGlone’s Facebook page Sunday. The video was filmed from a vehicle that followed the skater over the bridge as some vehicles passed.

The traffic was quite light at the time, fortunately, but we saw several vehicles pass it, which shows that there was traffic alongside it on the bridge.
“It is foreseeable that he could have been seriously injured or killed while doing this,” said Louisiana State Police Sergeant James Anderson. filmed by Lindsey O.Hulett, 34, of Lake Charles, who followed her in his vehicle. Hulett has also been arrested on charges of aggravated obstruction of a trade road.

A sentence carries a prison sentence of up to 15 years. “The video showed the creation of a dangerous situation for participants and motorists on the bridge,” said Senegal.Si McGlone said he was cautious on his way down, saying he would probably never try the trick again.
It’s not worth it, no. People want me to do the other side, but I can’t, I’m sorry, McGlone said. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime thing.
