PEACHTREE CITY, Ga. - There was a heavy law enforcement presence at a Peachtree City Target where police say a man climbed into the ceiling and refused to come out Sunday night.
Officials believe the man was experiencing a mental health crisis.
He has since been taken into custody and is receiving medical treatment.
Peachtree City police said that while there was no threat to the community, they would keep officers in the area to assess the damage to the property.
It's not clear how long the store will remain closed as that happens.
