Singapore Swisshotel. 2nd Jumper in 1 Week.
SINGAPORE: A 33-year-old man was found dead on Wednesday (Jun 3) at Swissotel The Stamford, just days after an Australian woman died in a fall at the same hotel. SCDF was requested for ambulance assistance at 1.10pm, and the man was pronounced dead at scene by paramedics. Police also said they received a call for help at 1.10pm at 2, Stamford Road, and found a man lying motionless at the said location. "Police are investigating the unnatural death," a spokesperson added. An eyewitness, who was about 15 metres away when the body fell to the ground, told Channel NewsAsia that the body landed between the hotel's main entrance and the Raffles City Shopping Centre McDonald's entrance. "I think it must have been from very high up because the sound was very loud. People from the hotel were also looking down, while those around were stunned," the eyewitness, who requested to remain anonymous, said. Manager for Marketing Communications at Swissotel Denice Lim also told Channel NewsAsia: "As it has just happened very recently, we are currently working with the police. The safety of our guests is paramount to us as well." Another hotel executive, Marketing Communications Director Vivian Tung, said: "We are deeply saddened by this afternoon’s incident and our heartfelt sympathies and thoughts are with the guest’s family. The safety and wellbeing of our guests and colleagues is and has always been our first priority. At this time we are doing everything we can to assist with the police investigation." Five days earlier on May 30, an Australian woman in her 50s was found dead at the parapet of the second floor of the same hotel. Channel NewsAsia understands that she fell from the 60th floor of the building. No foul play is suspected, the earlier report said. - CNA/kk  · |
