New York Police Department officials reportedly arrested an “emotionally disturbed person” at Trump Tower in New York City on Monday.
According to The Associated Press, law enforcement officials confirmed that a 30-year-old individual was arrested inside Trump Tower after officials responded to a report of a disorderly individual on an “elevated surface” at Trump Tower. The outlet noted that New York Police Department officials responded to the incident at roughly 4:30 p.m. on Monday.

Sources told The New York Daily News that the individual was “running around on the 5th floor” and “acting up trying to get to the roof.” Additionally, a New York Police Department anti-terrorism officer told the outlet, “It was nothing political, he was emotionally disturbed. He was clearly off his meds.”
A video shared by journalist Oliya Scootercaster shows a heavy presence of law enforcement officials at Trump Tower on Monday as police officials evacuated people from Trump Tower’s atrium. The Associated Press reported that some of the officers were seen wearing safety harnesses and helmets that are typically used by emergency responders who are trained to rescue individuals from high locations.
In a caption to the footage from Monday’s incident, Scootercaster tweeted, “Hostage Negotiation Team was present at Trump Tower after unknown person tried getting to the roof of the building. Suspect, described as emotionally disturbed person, was stopped on the 5th floor.”
Scootercaster also shared two other videos on X, formerly Twitter, from Monday’s incident at Trump Tower. In the videos, a large crowd can be seen gathered outside Trump Tower as a significant number of New York Police Department officials entered the building and secured the property.
