A New York City woman took her own life and that of her tiny rescue dog Friday afternoon when she leapt from the 46-storey building where she lived.
The 60-year-old Manhattan woman had reportedly just finished her lunch on top of the luxurious Victory building when she walked to the edge and jumped with the dog.
Authorities said that she left behind a suicide note talking about depression and several medication bottles.
A witness who lived across the street from the building said that he had received a message scribbled on a paper airplane that landed next to him moments before the tragedy.
“It landed on my roof up here, like directly above. I was like ‘Oh, is somebody OK?” he said adding that the paper read “stay strong, you’ll get through this” and “you are blessed.”
“I threw it off the roof. I wanted to just send it to whoever just passing along a positive message.”
“Yo, that’s crazy that somebody like threw this note and then this literally happened like right after.”
