Man Dies In Lodge Overpass Fall

A man fell to his death from an overpass on the Lodge Freeway early Wednesday morning, but was it his own doing?

Michigan State Police say they are trying to determine if the victim, in his mid-20's, had jumped or was pushed from the overpass along the northbound lanes of the Lodge Freeway near the Davison Freeway on Detroit's near west side.

The victim was struck by several cars after hitting the pavement below.  There was no identification found on the man by authorities.

The northbound Lodge had to be closed for at least two hours.
