Base jumper charged

On Thursday, Dec. 26, 2013 witnesses reported seeing two base jumpers in the area of 121 Street and Jasper Avenue just before 7 p.m.

On-site security apprehended one male jumper and the other allegedly fled the area in a black SUV.


Police charged a 34-year-old man with trespassing which carries a $287 fine. This is not the same male who was charged in a base jumping incident in August 2013.


“The EPS discourages this high-risk activity as it poses a significant risk to both the jumpers and the public,” says Duty Officer Chad Tawfik.


The investigation continues.
