Taipei, Aug. 3 (CNA) Two Taiwanese-Americans who tried to climb out from the iconic
Taipei 101 skyscraper Tuesday have each been fined NT$1,500 (US$48.8) for violating social order, Taipei police said Friday.
Huang Chih-chia (黃致嘉) and Li Cheng-yuan (李承遠), both 19 years old, tried to scale down the skyscraper from the 91st floor to the 90th floor by scaling the fence surrounding the 91st floor’s outdoor observatory and sliding down a pole along the building’s exterior, the police said.
After the two entered the outdoor observatory at about 9 p.m. Tuesday, Huang was found and stopped by a security guard as he tried to climb over the fence.
