A 25-year-old man is dead after apparently jumping out of a window at the Four Seasons Hotel in Midtown Manhattan, according to police.
The NYPD tells us they were called to the hotel, located at 57 East 57th Street, at around 3:05 a.m. this morning. There, they found the victim unconscious and unresponsive, with injuries consistent with a fall from an elevated level. He was transported to Bellevue Hospital and pronounced dead.
The victim, who was from Maryland, has not yet been identified. “It was a young kid,” a restaurant worker at the hotel told the Post. “He hit the tree outside and broke a branch before smashing on the ground.”
In December, 20-year-old college student Connor Cummings was killed after he fell from the roof of the Four Seasons. Cummings, a photographer, was apparently scaling the midtown Manhattan hotel with a friend to get a photo when he fell.
The Post reports that the victim was a guest at the hotel. Police say the investigation is ongoing.
