It is only a crime if you are tresspassing and/or destroying someones property. That is as far as I know.

You gotta man up and take responsibilty, If you were acting a fool and got in trouble don't tell the coppers your doing parkour. It's bad for parkours image.

Man, I have not ever heard of someone gettign arrested for PK. Just roll with the punches and make sure you know what you did wrong, then look into alll rules and regsulations for the school, and any local laws about climbing on public buildings. It would be good to know everything you can before goign into court, bc there might be a loop to to get you in the clear. Just make sure you dont give PK a bad rap sheet! Good luck with this!

If all you did was climb explain what you were doing and the charges will probly be dropped.

Well i'm not sure about the disorderly conduct thing. But i learned from a cop that you can't be charged with tresspasing unless it was malicous. And believe it or not, the same with distruction of property, it's not criminal unless it was malichous.

I'm fairly sure. I mean a cop told it to me. You would still be liable for the damage, but could not be charged in a court of law.
