Woman jumps to death from Tokyo building, lands on pedestrian
A woman died and a man was knocked unconscious, apparently after the woman leaped from the roof of a department store in Tokyo and landed on the man, police said Tuesday.
Police said a passerby found the man and woman collapsed and bleeding on the road in front of the Ikebukuro Parco department store in Tokyo’s Toshima-ku at about 1 p.m. on Tuesday, and alerted police.
The woman, believed to be a 25-year-old unemployed Tokyo resident, was confirmed dead soon afterwards. The man, who is thought to be a 37-year-old resident of Chiba Prefecture, remains unconscious in serious condition.
