"T.I. just happened to be in the right place at the right time," Polite said.

Harris faces his own life crisis this week when he appears before a federal judge, who is considering revoking his probation from a weapons conviction.

Police were trying to talk the man, who appeared to be about 25 years old, from jumping from the 22-floor Colony Square building when Harris "appeared out of nowhere," Polite said.
