Man threatening to jump from Summit Ave window talked back inside by SPD

Seattle Police talked to a man threatening to jump from a Summit Ave window Sunday afternoon eventually convincing the man to come back inside his third floor apartment.

Medics were called to the scene because the man also told police he had swallowed an entire bottle of medication.

Around 4:15 PM, a passerby phoned 911 to report the man hanging out of the building’s window and acting “out of it.” Police talked with the man and called a negotiator to the scene as well as Seattle Fire. The officers were eventually able to talk the man back inside after about a half hour.

We have no further details on the man’s condition at this time.
