As soon as the metal ladder is removed, a man drops down from above.

Police officers rush over and overpower him in an instant.

This incident took place at a department store in Washington state, U.S.

The man roamed around damaging ceiling tiles, lighting fixtures, and wiring. Although police persuaded him to come down, he held out for over an hour.

However, he eventually fell and tried to flee until the very end, but was ultimately caught by the police.

The man was arrested on charges of theft and property damage, and it was confirmed that he already had an active felony arrest warrant issued against him.
