A professional climber was in custody Wednesday after scaling the Las Vegas Sphere, according to the Las Vegas police.
The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department received a call about the climber at 10:11 a.m. local time. Police said the climber was later detained without incident.
"We are grateful to the local authorities for their support in this matter," a spokesperson for Sphere Entertainment said in a statement, via NBC affiliate KSNV. "The individuals involved are currently in the custody of LVMPD."
The climber was identified as Maison DesChamps, who goes by "Pro-life Spider-Man" on social media. He has been arrested for previous climbing stunts aimed at drawing attention to his anti-abortion cause, including one in Las Vegas in 2021 and one in Phoenix ahead of last year's Super Bowl.
