Distraught man perched high on D.C. radio tower for over 24 hours, police say
A man who scaled a radio tower on American University's campus Tuesday afternoon was still perched a few hundred feet in the air late Wednesday, refusing to come down after more than 24 hours, D.C. police said.
The unidentified man is experiencing a mental health crisis and has threatened to jump from the tower, police said. The tower is 321-feet high, according to radio station WAMU-FM. The man was roughly halfway up.
