A man has been arrested after a person was seen climbing up a 72-storey skyscraper in central London. The terrifying stunt appeared to show the person start climbing The Shard shortly before 6am on Sunday morning (September 4).
Police and the fire brigade were called to the scene after 5.30am, with a number of cordons erected as emergency services responded. A 21-year-old male was arrested on suspicion of trespass after a person began climbing one of the largest buildings in Europe, which stands 1,017ft-tall.
Two other men were also arrested by police on suspicion of causing public nuisance. The London Ambulance Service confirmed there were no reported injuries in the incident.
