A young woman in her 20's was allegedly pushed from the 11th story floor of a north end high rise in Toronto, Canada.
The police had originally responded to a call about a gun, but when they got there the woman dropped to the ground and hit a ground floor satellite dish that just might have saved her life.
She was among four that suffered injuries around 5pm on Wednesday. One of the persons suffering injuries was an undercover female cop.
Apparently a man was trying to throw the woman over the balcony when police tried to stop him, but their attempt failed. This all happened in a massage parlor.
Police said the man struggled as they were arresting him and he now faces more charges. A woman who is suspected of being a madam of the parlor was also held by the police.
Officers said the alleged madam operates other sex dens in the quiet and nicely kept building.
Officers have since refused to comment anymore on the case. Over 100 residents were kept waiting to get into the building which was sealed for several hours by police tape.
The tenants inside were kept in lock-down for over an hour according to one tenant, Amanda Leduc, age 32. She also said she's a bit concerned about her safety now.
She said all tenants were forced by security to stay inside their apartments during the incident procedure.
"I am very shocked by what has happened," said a resident who identified himself as Derrick, 28. "This is just a little bit too close to home."
SIU officials refused to comment more on the investigation late Wednesday.
