A WOMAN plunged 60ft to her death as her boyfriend and sister watched in horror.
The 30-year-old fell from a fourth-floor balcony after joining the pair for a drink after a night out. Medics found her slumped in a pool of blood at the foot of the tower block in Queenstown Road, Battersea. They battled to save her from horrific head injuries but the woman was pronounced dead on arrival at hospital.
Oh my, isn’t this just lovely? Not just her boyfriend, but her sister as well. What a bad day.
Detectives arrested a man and a woman in connection with the tragedy at 3am on Saturday but stressed they were merely helping police piece together the tragic events. Officers are treating the woman’s death as “unexplained”. She was due to be identified as we went to press yesterday.
Unexplained?
Detective Inspector Jess Ruddell, of Wandsworth CID, said: “This was an absolutely tragic incident. Her family have been torn apart.
I’ll say.
“We have to carry out a full and proper investigation for obvious reasons but we hope to reach a conclusion in the next few days.”
For obvious reasons
