Man who leaped to death from Empire State Building ID'd as Yale University student

BY Matthew Lysiak
March 31st 2010

Quote:
The Yale college student who plunged off the Empire State Building planned the desperate act in advance, cop sources said.

He apologized for turning to suicide and wrote he planned to jump from either the George Washington Bridge or the Empire State.

There were seven people on the landmark building's observation deck when Dabaghi climbed the safety barrier, police said. One person tried to talk to him down but Dabaghi would not listen, cops said.

It's still unclear how Dabaghi got past the 10-foot-high spiked fence ringing the Empire State Building's observation deck.

I didn't post the gory details from the article. Such a shame when people do this, and someone else could have been killed.
