BEDFORD – State Highway 183 closed for the second time in less than three days due to police activity.

Westbound 183, between Industrial and Murphy, was shut down Wednesday evening.

On Sunday, a police standoff on State Highway 183 closed eastbound lanes in Bedford for hours, with many stopping to watch officers try to negotiate with a woman who claimed to have a gun with her.
