For a little bit on twitter or other socials. Suicide attempts on highways are posted as a "police incident" and generally if the person doesn't jump it will just be posted online during the event. For example "2:45pm: southbound deerfoot at Mcknight closed due to police incident, 3:15pm: update - southbound deerfoot reopens".

That won't make it tomorrow's news. Even if somebody dies and it's closed for hours they generally won't put the "police incident" in tomorrow's news because they're not allowed to say anything more than "The road was closed for hours due to a police incident".
