Police release pole climbing dancehall artiste

KINGSTON, Jamaica—Dancehall artiste ‘Ikon D Link’ who created a stir in Half-Way-Tree Tuesday evening after climbing a transmitter pole at ZIP FM radio station was on Wednesday released by the police.

Ikon D Link, whose real name is Tyson Fisher, threatened to commit suicide if his song was not played, after the station declined his request.

He faced charges of creating public mischief and attempting suicide.

However Senior Superintendent Fitz Bailey said Thursday that Ikon D Link was not charged and investigations into the matter continue.
