A man sparked a huge emergency services response after scaling scaffolding at Trafford Town Hall. Scott Wright, 33, caused a four-hour road closure on December 29 last year.
Manchester Magistrates' Court heard Talbot Road was shut after police negotiators, paramedics and firefighters rushed to the scene. Wright climbed the building before calling 999.
A cordon was erected, with members of the public facing disruption. Wright was brought down at around 9.40am and sectioned under the Mental Health Act.
