I'll bet there was bird food on the roof.

I do not know about the bird food, but authorities put a trap up there so they could catch the critter and return him to a suitable environment.

My comment was from my experience with 'coons robbing my feeders. I finally hung one of the feeders from a oak tree limb with 6lb. test fishing line. A 'coon climbed up onto the deck, up onto the rail, and leaned out to grab the feeder. He apparently weighed more than 6lbs. The line broke, he dropped about 12 feet and hasn't been back.
