The province's police watchdog is investigating the death of a 24-year-old woman, who fell from a balcony in southwest London.
London police were called about a woman in distress at an apartment on Wonderland Rd. S, near Southdale Ave. around 9:40pm Sunday. Officers tried to negotiate with the woman, but she fell from the balcony to the ground below.
Police attempted to resuscitate the woman until paramedics arrived. She was then rushed to hospital where she was pronounced dead at 10:48pm.
Foul play is not suspected, police said in a release issued Monday.
The Special Investigations Unit (SIU) has assigned three investigators and two forensic investigators to the case. They are asking anyone with information about this incident to contact the lead investigator at 1-800-787-8529. Anyone with video evidence can upload it to the SIU website.
The SIU is an arm’s length agency that investigates reports involving police where there has been death, serious injury or allegations of sexual assault.
