http://www.myfoxchicago.com/dpp/news/metro/willis-sears-tower-man-security-threat-elevator-chicago-terrorism-20110523 By Craig Wall FOX Chicago News 23 May 2011 Chicago - Willis Tower security is investigating how a disheveled man wandered into an elevator and made it all the way up to the 102nd floor before anyone stopped him. The camera in the Franklin Street lobby of the Willis Tower shows a security officer directing people where to go on Monday, May 16, as they usually do. But, when the long haired, 42-year-old psychiatric patient wandered in, security missed him. After meandering down several hallways, the man follows an employee with a key pass into a freight elevator and makes his way up the Tower. A spokesman for the Willis Tower says it was while the man was in the elevator that he was spotted by security. He was in the building for 16 minutes, making it all the way up to the 102nd floor. On his way down he was arrested on the 32nd floor and charged with misdemeanor trespassing.
