Man dies after fall from 5th floor of Athens hospital

Police were on Friday investigating the death of an unidentified man, aged between 60 and 65, who tumbled out of a window on the fifth floor of the Alexandra Hospital in central Athens.

The hospital administration confirmed that the man was not a patient but could not say whether he was visiting one.

Some reports suggested the man fell when he leaned up against the window and it gave way, but police are not ruling out the possibility of suicide.
