Disturbing video posted on social media shows an attempted homicide suspect leaping through the window of a downtown Connellsville building, and falling 25 feet to his death.

Police arrested 42-year-old Bernard Geisel, accused of trying to kill someone with a crowbar at a Fayette County convenience store last month.

Geisel was handcuffed and being escorted by officers down a stairwell in the Brimstone Building when he went through the window headfirst Friday night.

The Observer-Reporter says State Police investigating the incident say there was no struggle when Geisel jumped out of the window.
