A young boy has tragically passed away after falling from a 19-story apartment block in England.
The shocking incident took place at a residential block in London’s Fern Street where a 14-year-old unnamed teenager plunged to his death at around 9 pm, MyLondon reported.
Shortly after the emergency services arrived at the scene and found the boy unresponsive, the 14-year-old was pronounced dead.
While the authorities have already informed the boy’s family of his passing, the death is currently being treated as “unexplained” even though foul play is not suspected.
“Police were called at 9.20 pm on Saturday, March 19 to Fern Street E3 after reports of a person having fallen from height from a residential block,” the Metropolitan Police confirmed.
“Officers responded with LAS. A 14-year-old boy was found unresponsive; he was pronounced dead at the scene. His next of kin are aware.
“The death is being treated as unexplained but is not thought to be suspicious.”
Meanwhile, the tragic incident was also confirmed by the London Ambulance Service whose spokesperson said:
“We were called at 9.13 pm on Saturday, March 19, to reports of a teenager falling from height in Fern Street, Bow.
“We sent two ambulance crews, a paramedic in a fast response car and an incident response car to the scene.
“We also dispatched an advanced trauma team from London’s Air Ambulance, which consisted of a doctor and a paramedic in a car. We took the patient to a major trauma center as a priority.”
