A teenage stu­dent who climbed on top of a walkover near Tumpuna Road, La Hor­quet­ta has safe­ly come down.

The 17-year-old boy made his way to the top of the walkover this morn­ing and sat on top of the wire cov­er­ing as traf­fic passed be­low.

Emer­gency ser­vices rushed to the scene to en­sure that the boy was not met with se­ri­ous in­jury or death from a fall.

His friend even­tu­al­ly climbed up next to him and af­ter the two spoke for a while, the boy came down.

He was then tak­en for a med­ical ex­am­i­na­tion.
