Man Falls From Balcony

As I always say in these cases - GOOD RIDDANCE !! Successfully re- habbing this type of criminal is huge longshot. There are far too many potentially violent and dangerous head-cases in our society and if they want to jump while committing a crime I SAY JUMP !!
 
Hmmm...he wasn't a Putin opponent by any chance?

That's so sad. A social worker could have saved his life.

You don’t know that.

The SIU says Toronto police officers found a man on an apartment balcony and tried to negotiate with him from a neighbouring balcony.

The watchdog says the man fell from the balcony at approximately 6:50 a.m. and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Toronto police said earlier on Twitter that it received reports that a man had broken into an apartment unit in the area before he fell and died.
 
Guy was trying to break into the next unit by using the balcony.
You play stupid games win stupid prizes, but in this case, it was his life.

Being Canada I'm waiting for his mom to come out and say "but he was a good boy..he only robs peoples apartments on weekends and holidays..he only had 10 previous convictions" then it's followed by a mass protest and riot by fellow dregs, losers and hippies claiming the cops forced him to his death and his family get $10 million in compensation
 
Is this like the third balcony fall with police? That seems like a high number. Especially over the short time.

I think that this a reflection of the % of people with mental issues keeps going up and up and up with no end in sight. Many of them are also people who are in the process of committing a crime. Anyone who is out on a balcony and threatening to jump probably gets even more stressed when a bunch of cops arrive which exacerbates the situation. Society OR mental health professionals OR government handouts OR incarceration are very unlikely to be able to solve their problems. I think that I can find another 100 situations that are more deserving of my worries and consideration.
 
I was at an incall a few years ago. I noticed their balcony had a solid wall that was about 4 feet high then there was a window that went to the top. So, the balcony was basically enclosed. I assume the balcony is usable 12 months a year.

The fact that the balcony is enclosed means it is safe for little kids and drunk adults.

That woman crashed through the railing with over 300 pounds of big girl force but yeah, blame the balcony.

Blame the infiltration of American fast food chains like McDonald's into Russia, but never question rusky engineering.
Could have been worse. She could have been using the outhouse on the balcony and fallen through.
But why not blame NATO while your at it?
