RICHMOND, Va (WTVR) - Richmond police are investigating an overnight incident on Belle Isle. Police said they responded to a call on the island shortly before midnight for a person who they suspected was going to harm himself.

Belle Isle was closed at the time, so police had little trouble blocking off the area. It did take officers a couple of hours to find the man in the woods.

No one was injured, police said. They said they are still investigating to determine what, if any, charges the man might face.
