Pasco authorities are still trying to find out why a man climbed onto the roof of the Union Gospel Mission, and began threatening to kill the employees who work there.

Fire crews had to use the hook and ladder to get 30-year-old John Morgan Lutes, after he scaled the building Wednesday and began threatening the workers.

After fire crews got him down, he was arrested by Pasco police on a felony threat charge.  No reason was given for his behavior as of yet.
