A mentally ill Brooklyn man was saved from jumping off a large box truck in an East New York, Brooklyn truck yard this afternoon after scaling the vehicle and holding cops at bay for over an hour.
The man, not identified, apparently entered the yard, Pentum Trucking at Fountain Avenue and Wortman Avenues, at about 4 p.m. during business hours and climbed to the top of the truck. Employees said he gave no warning and began ranting and pacing until police from the 75th Precinct arrived.
