    The last guy, David, put up a good effort. He wrapped him self around the beams and it took 4 cops 30-40 minutes to jerk him loose. He was amazing.

    No, the picture never got any better. Were you awake when he was up there alone and all of a sudden took a leak off the top of it, lol?

    No, I didn't see that. They had the rope around him then?
    That washington examiner article, of course true or not, had to mention that the last guy took a piss on the roof before they got him down.

    They didn't have the rope on him. The other 3 had gone peacefully into the cherry picker, one by one. I guess he had communicated to them that he would not go. The police were on the ground talking about the situation. All of a sudden you hear the crowd cheering and the guy vj'ing the livestream cracks up and announces that David is taking a leak.

    The cops couldn't get a rope around him from above. One came up a ladder and managed to get a rope around him. Then they took out a baton and started poking him in the stomach. He still held on for a long time. They got him free of the structure and thought they had him in the cherry picker, peacefully, when he got free. He latched onto the structure really good for another several minutes. He was hanging from it, having his arms and legs wrapped around a beam. I guess they finally wore him down or he decided to go with them.
