NEW YORK (1010 WINS) — A senior software engineer at Google plunged to his death from the company's headquarters in Chelsea late Thursday, according to police and a report.
The 31-year-old victim, whose identity remains unclear at this time, fell from the search engine's building at 111 Eighth Ave. around 11:30 p.m., cops said.
Officers responded to a report of an unconscious person lying on the ground near a building on West 15th Street, directly across from the headquarters.
He was rushed to NYC Health + Hospitals/Bellevue, where he died.
Sources told the New York Post that handprints were found on the ledge of a 14th-floor open-air terrace, where the man is believed to have plummeted from in the suspected suicide.
Investigators reportedly discovered neither a note nor a video of the fatal fall.
The death follows the suspected suicide of Jacob Pratt, a 33-year-old Google employee who also worked at the Manhattan headquarters, in February.
