Maison DesChamps, the self-proclaimed “Pro-Life Spiderman,” was arrested Tuesday for climbing the side of a tower in Oklahoma, KOCO reported.
The man climbed the side of the Devon Tower in Oklahoma City, reaching the top around 9:40 a.m., KOCO reported. Police arrested DesChamps on a trespassing complaint, according to the outlet. In addition, police apprehended another individual, who was not identified, after they operated a drone that followed DesChamps on his climb up the 50-story tower.
Devon Energy reacted to DesChamps’ climb via a statement on Twitter, expressing gratitude for the emergency responders who removed him from the tower and took him into custody.

“Stay on the look out!” DesChamps wrote, sharing a post about the campaign to his Instagram story prior to the climb.
Later, DesChamps shared a video of himself on the tower to his Instagram Stories, tagging Let Them Live and encouraging his followers to get involved in the campaign. Instagram Stories typically disappear from the popular social media website within 24 hours of posting.
