Anyone work dowtown/financial district?

OMG. Apparently someone jumped from a window and is lying on the sidewalk covered in a tarp with ONE officer standing guard. No detectives, no ambulance. It is the oddest/saddest scene. In front of Duane Reade on Maiden Lane (across from Jim Brady's).

The body has been laying there with that one officer since at least 9am. Very sad. I can see it from my office window and I am trying so hard to not keep looking.

That officer has been there since before 7:30am. I walked out from the 2 train (chase exit) at 7:30am and walked down Maiden Lane towards my building as I do every morning. I saw the area roped off, but didn't think much of it as I assume it was due to falling ice. As I got closer I saw people taking pictures (how rude!) and I looked down and saw the man lying there with a white tarp covering most of his body. The officer was just standing there. I assume they are waiting for the coroner to show up. So sad really.

I used to live and work right over there (I worked right on Maiden). That's so sad. And for people to be taking pictures, I have no words other than vile, disgusting, disrepectful. Some people never cease to amaze me Chat Icon

That's horrible. I was heading that way for lunch today but, I think I may not now - I don't think I could deal with seeing that knowing what happened.
