Think about this for a second. You can literally go "crawling all over the Brooklyn Bridge consequence free" anytime you like. It's a bridge you can walk on. You can even drive your car on it. In both cases you're far more likely to be a threat there than on the top of the bridge.

The immediate reaction was that this might be terror related - "NYPD bomb technicians spent several hours checking the bridge for explosives but found none."

They even subpoenaed a parody Twitter account for claiming it "signal[ed] our complete surrender of the Brooklyn Bridge bicycle path to pedestrians"

Not our proudest moment.
