CNN: -- Four New York-area men were arrested Monday after a BASE jumping stunt from atop One World Trade Center in September, police said.
James Brady, Kyle Hartwell, Marko Markovich, and Andrew Rossig have been charged with burglary, reckless endangerment and jumping from a structure, according to a statement issued by NYPD Commissioner William Bratton.
"These men violated the law and placed themselves, as well as others, in danger," Bratton said. "These arrests should send a message to anyone thinking about misusing a landmark this way."
The group climbed the nation's tallest building on September 30 and parachuted more than 1,300 feet off the skyscraper, said attorney Timothy Parlatore, who is representing Rossig. Hartwell kept lookout at the BASE of the tower during the stunt, Parlatore said.
