QUIRKY WORLD...Teen scales 104-floor World Trade Centre

USA: A teenage boy was arrested after sneaking into One World Trade Center, which is still under construction in New York City and is the nation’s tallest building, and ascending its 104 floors to the antenna, police said.

Justin Casquejo, 16, of Weehawken, New Jersey, was carrying his camera when he crawled through a small hole in the construction fence encircling the World Trade Center site in lower Manhattan shortly after 4am on Sunday, a spokesman for the Port Authority of New York & New Jersey said.

He then clambered up scaffolding to enter the building, took an elevator to the 88th floor and climbed stairs to the tower’s antenna, which rises 1,776 feet above the ground.
