The space between the two walls was big enough for the 35-year-old to lay down, but not get out. Firefighters broke part of the outer wall in order to free him and he was able to crawl out of the space.

Police do not yet know why he was in the crawl space, but have discovered that it was accessible from the roof of the building. The man is being investigated for criminal trespass, but is not currently under arrest.
