SHOPPERS watched in horror today as a man fell from a multi-storey car park.

Police closed roads into Brighton Marina and attempted to talk the man down after he was spotted perched on a ledge opposite the Asda supermarket.

After about an hour the man, in his twenties, fell onto the outbound road.

He was conscious when taken away by ambulance.
