VIDEO at link above.
A man climbed on top of the roof of a La Puente home and wouldn’t come down for several hours Tuesday until an 83-year-old resident threw him off, according to bystander video of the incident.
The man had refused to budge for at least five hours despite demands from deputies and a crisis negotiator, said Sgt. David Cortinas of the sheriff’s Temple City station. He said the man was taken to a hospital for psychological evaluation after sheriff’s deputies took him into custody.
At about 12:30 p.m., about an hour and a half after the incident ended, Cortinas said the resident who got involved in the standoff had “escorted” the man off the roof, saying he also had few details about the incident.
But cell phone video taken by resident Ashley Wrenn showed the resident, who she identified as her 83-year-old grandfather, Wilford Burgess,approaching the intruder on the roof, grabbing him and shoving him off.
“My grandfather was so upset. (He) told him, ‘You need to get down and off my roof,'” Wrenn said in a telephone interview.
Once he landed on the ground, she said the man damaged her mother’s car.
“It was a crazy morning,” she said.
The incident started when the sheriff’s station got a call from someone at 6:34 a.m. saying she or he was being followed near Nelson and Orange avenues, Cortinas said.
