Posted: February 20th, 2007 | Filed under: Just HorribleAn unidentified man died yesterday when he plunged from a 15th-floor Park Avenue apartment and was impaled on a No Parking sign, police said.
A source said the man may have worked in the building. A resident of the 16-story high-rise at 1130 Park said that the apartment was recently vacated and that a young couple was preparing to move in.
An EMS team was called to the scene between East 91st and 92nd streets just after 2 p.m. By then, the body had slid down the pole and was draped over a bicycle leaning against the pole.
Some of the man’s clothing was still on the sign hours later.
It was not immediately known whether he fell, was pushed or jumped.
