Suicide Jumper Kills Man On Ground
Manichi, Japan - A man has died in bizarre circumstances after a suicidal woman jumped from a 12-story building and landed on top of him, killing them both, police said.
Koichi Sato, 54, was walking past the 12-story apartment on the last day of 2004 when the woman jumped. He was killed as a result of the impact as she landed on top of him.
The 43-year-old woman from Hidaka, Saitama Prefecture, also died from the impact of her landing.
Police said they do not believe the woman deliberately landed on Sato.
The woman's parents lived in the apartment in the Tokyo suburb of Musashimurayama from where she jumped, according to police. She did not leave a suicide note. Police have not released the woman's name. (Mainichi Shimbun, Japan, Jan. 1, 2005)
