IN BRIEF / TEXAS
From Times Wire Reports
A daredevil climber known as the French "Spiderman" who has scaled skyscrapers
around the globe was arrested on a charge of criminal trespass as he tried to
clamber up a Houston office building, authorities said.
Alain Robert, 43, dashed from a taxi to the 46-story One Houston Center but
was stopped as he was starting his ascent. Police said a reporter had tipped
them off to Robert's plans.
"A tall officer was able to grab his ankles," Houston police spokesman Alan
Wright said.
