I have his number. I've spoken with him. He has given me his word that he will not do anything tonight. I believe him. He is living at home, i believe, and sending the cops over right now doesn't seem like the right play.

Let someone qualified make that decision. Don't make it yourself.

Contact the proper authorities and let them deal with the situation in person.

I agree. Let the professionals do their jobs. He is crying out for help, the best thing to do is get him some help. If the professionals know the situation they can avoid a lot of embarrassment with the family. You cant take the word of someone who is suicidal, their decisions could swing in either direction due to various triggers out of our control.
