Gemara:
Masechet Eruvin 99b, he's standing in רשות הרבים and drinking the water that rolled down the gutter attached to his roof that had collected in a receptacle. The latter is a utensil at the bottom of the gutter and is called a מזחילה. The Sugya analyzes the permissibility of drinking the water in the מזחילה. The latter is very close to the roof, within the שיעור לבוד, i.e. within 3 טפחים of the roof. As such, the מזחילה - an the water within it - is a רשות היחיד, but he's standing in a public domain.
