Ahern said the man was suspended from a landing at the 16th floor of the skyscraper, at 401 N. Wabash Ave.
At 5:27 p.m., Chicago Police officers and a SWAT team, as well as Fire Department personnel, were called for a man threatening suicide from the landing.
A social media video appeared to show the man saying he wanted to talk with President Donald Trump.
SWAT negotiators were at the scene trying to talk with the man Sunday night, and were still at it as of the 10 p.m. hour.
CBS 2’s Steven Graves reported the man was dangling from a rope. He appeared to be wearing a climbing harness in the social media video.
