2 protesters arrested after scaling top of Empire State Building antenna
The NYPD is investigating after the pair appeared to propose and kissed while displaying a peace message on the landmark’s antenna.
- Two individuals were arrested by New York City police after scaling the antenna spire of the iconic Empire State Building in Manhattan on Wednesday afternoon.
- Dressed in black with masks covering their faces, the climbers reached the very top of the 1,454-foot structure to unfurl a large banner that read, “When the power of love beats the love of power the world knows peace.”
- The high-altitude demonstration unexpectedly turned into an elaborate romantic milestone when the man dropped to one knee on a lower platform of the transmitter to propose to his partner before they descended.
- The stunt has raised serious questions regarding the security protocols of the historic landmark, marking the first time in over twenty years that unauthorized individuals have successfully bypassed the skyscraper's high-tech surveillance systems to reach the antenna.
