'One Tree Hill' and NC town compromise over bridge

The North Carolina-based TV drama "One Tree Hill" and the town where it films have reached a compromise on closing a bridge during rush hour to shoot a scene of someone jumping off the bridge.

The Star-News of Wilmington reports that "One Tree Hill," Wrightsville Beach and the Transportation Department reached agreement Tuesday to close two lanes for filming rather than the whole bridge, as originally requested.

The scene will be shot between 6 a.m. and 11 a.m. on a Monday morning. Town officials didn't want to close the entire bridge because of safety concerns and traffic disruptions.

The Transportation Department said it would waive the state law that prohibits anyone from jumping off a bridge.
