Priest Coaxes Ex-GI From Death Leap
A Catholic priest talked down Lawrence Casilac a former paratrooper who stood on a 25 story ledge above Market Street in San Francisco. Firemen blocked traffic as workers persuaded him to step back after his wife left him. Police and a witness said the man refused to give his name and was taken to San Francisco Hospital for observation. Father Martin Walsh, of St. Patrick’s, spoke to the crowd saying the crisis showed the problem is not a solution.
