A 56-year-old woman leapt three stories to her death at the Queens Center Mall this afternoon. Her fall was broken by a 17-year-old boy who was injured, one of many teenagers milling about on the concourse level after school. The woman was in the company of two other teenagers before she jumped. She was pronounced dead at the scene; the teenager she landed on suffered serious head trauma, but is in stable condition at Elmhurst Medical Center. WPIX is saying that the teenage victim was walking on the ground level; NY1 says that he was sitting in a massage chair when the woman fell around 2:30. A witness told the Times, “First I thought it was a gunshot, and I said ‘I’m out of here.’ People started screaming. There was pandemonium and chaos. And I looked below to the lower level and people were screaming that someone had jumped from above.” Police cordoned off sections of the mall and shut down certain escalators leading to the lower level.
