Four people died after jumping “all-together” off a seventh-floor apartment balcony in Switzerland.
Five jumpers, who were all barefoot, struck the pavement below after jumping as a group. Four of the individuals were pronounced dead on the scene. The fifth person has potentially catastrophic injuries and was listed in grave condition at a hospital.
Neighbors say a family of five live at the residence where the incident took place. The family- two adults in their 40s, two teenagers and a grandmother- moved in about three years ago.
One neighbor added that he smelled a strong scent of incense coming from the apartment for the past few days. Many building residents also believe the family belonged to a cult.
Police have not yet confirmed if the jumpers are related. The investigation remains ongoing.
