SAN DIEGO -- A woman was not seriously hurt after she jumped out of a cab on the Interstate 8 freeway and then leaped off an overpass near SeaWorld early Friday morning. 
 
At around 1:30 a.m. a cab was transporting three women down westbound I-8 when the women began to fight, according to the driver, forcing him to pull over on the side of freeway at the Morena Boulevard overpass. The three women opened the doors and resumed their fight in the roadway. 
 
During the fight, one of the women jumped off the 15-foot overpass and landed on the cement below. She was not injured. 
 
California Highway Patrol and San Diego police officers responded and arrested the jumper. No one else was hurt.
