Jonty Bravery was 17 at the time of the incident and said he carried out the act because he wanted to be on the television news.

LONDON - A British teenager who threw a six-year-old French boy from a 10th-floor viewing platform at the Tate Modern art gallery in London with the intention of killing him was jailed for 15 years on Friday and told he might never be freed.

The unnamed victim, who was visiting Britain with his family, fell 100 feet after he was targeted by Bravery and was found on a fifth-floor roof. His mother was heard by witnesses screaming:"Where's my son? Where's my son?" "You had intended to kill someone that day. You almost killed that 6-year-old boy," she told Bravery.

The teenager, who has autistic spectrum disorder and a personality disorder, was being held at the high security Broadmoor Hospital.
