Police got the call at about 7 a.m., the New York Post reported. The man, whose identity was not released, was apprehended within 5 minutes and sent to Bellevue Hospital for a psychiatric evaluation.

Two men independently reached the roof June 5, while the third got as far as the 11th floor. All three were trying to make political points. The first man hung a sign on the facade protesting global warming, the second wore a T-shirt with the message "Malaria no more," and the third hung a banner from the Times sign that showed Osama bin Laden holding a puppet President George W. Bush.
