NEW DELHI: A video circulating online shows a young man attempting to jump from the 12th floor of Noida's Supertech Capetown Society in a bid to end his life. However, alert and quick-thinking residents intervened just in time, successfully preventing the tragedy.
According to reports, the man, 21, attempted to jump from the balcony of his rental apartment after losing his job. Due to this, he got depressed and wanted to commit suicide.
The video footage shows two men rushing to the scene and pulling the 21-year-old back from the balcony handrail where he was dangling.
According to media reports citing police sources, the man had previously lived with his family in the society before moving to another location, and on the day of the incident, he returned to Supertech without notifying his family and attempted to end his life.
The police were alerted to the situation and, upon arrival, confirmed that the man had a history of mental illness and was undergoing treatment. Authorities have assured that the situation is now under control, and no further action was necessary.
In two separate incidents, two people, including a child, lost their lives after falling from residential buildings, police said on Monday.
In the first incident, 24-year-old Nitish Kumar died after falling from the 24th floor of a building in Amrapali Platinum Society in Sector 119, according to police.
In the second incident, which occurred on Sunday, a 10-year-old boy died after falling from the 13th floor of a residential society in Sector 107, stated Station In-charge Jitendra Kumar Singh.
