There was also a paramedic car waiting at the scene to treat the man for any injuries he may of had when he came down.
At this time it’s not known why he went up on the roof. Police officers were asking him to come down from the roof , But every time they did , he would shout down to them and throw tiles at the officers.
Members of public even tried to get the man to come down but he just ignored them and carry on throwing tiles.
Police negotiators arrived at the scene and went around to the rear of the building to talk to the man and try get him to come down but he wouldn’t listen at that time.
A police van went down the rear of the property in preparation for the man to be taken away. Police negotiators went down the alley to talk to the man but after a few minutes had to come out because the man started to throw more tiles down at them and near to the police van.
