72-year-old man falls to death from 12th floor in bizarre incident
Changhua City today (24th) experienced a bizarre falling death case. A 72-year-old man fell from his 12th-floor residence in a building, landing on the roof of a terraced house. Despite being rushed to the hospital, he succumbed to his injuries due to the severity of his condition. Police investigation found a fire hose hanging from the exterior wall of the top floor, precisely outside the window of the elderly man's residence. The apartment door was locked, and a pair of sandals were found on the top floor, making the cause of the fall highly unusual. It is suspected that the elderly man, having forgotten his keys, attempted to use the fire hose on the top floor to climb down and enter his apartment through the window, but lost his footing and fell. However, the exact cause of the fall will be further investigated with the assistance of his family to clarify the cause of death.
Today at noon, a loud "bang" was heard from the terraced house. Nearby residents went out to check and were shocked to discover a man had fallen onto the rooftop of the terraced house. They immediately reported it to the fire department. Local residents also identified the fallen man as a 72-year-old elderly man from the community building. Outside the window of the elderly man's 12th-floor residence, there was a fire hose hanging from the exterior wall of the top floor, and the window was open, leaving residents bewildered.
Some speculated that the elderly man, upon realizing he had forgotten his keys, might have tried to use the fire hose from the top floor to climb down to his 12th-floor residence and enter through the window. However, he might have accidentally lost his balance and fallen during the climb. Police inspected the top floor and found the elderly man's apartment door locked and a pair of sandals on the top floor. The window was open. Preliminary police investigation revealed that the elderly man lived with his wife, but his wife was recently hospitalized. Given the peculiar circumstances of the elderly man's fall, police will subsequently request the family to assist in making a statement to clarify the cause of his fall.
