New York, Apr 3, (THAINDIAN NEWS) A 21 year old Yale University student committed suicide after jumping from the 86th floor of the Empire State Building earlier this week. Authorities have revealed that the student has left behind a suicide note in his dorm room in which he has expressed his apology for taking his own life.
According to police, Cameron Dabaghi, who jumped from the building on Tuesday, had revealed in his suicide note that he would be committing suicide by either jumping off from Manhattan’s George Washington Bridge or the Empire State Building with the student ultimately choosing the latter to take the extreme step. However, the reasons which propelled the young student reportedly still remains a mystery with his friends as well as his family members at Austin, Texas unable to shed any light into the matter. Jack Newman, who was the tennis coach of Cameron Dabaghi for supposedly a period of five years has expressed shock and utter disbelief at the fact that the 21 year old decided to end his own life. While remembering the deceased student, the coach added that Cameron Dabaghi was popular in the campus and also a bright student with nobody having any clue about any problems that he might be confronting.
Meanwhile, it has been revealed that as the Yale student was climbing over the barrier, a security guard has attempted to stop him but was not successful as few moments later he jumped off from the building. When the rescue officials finally arrived at the Empire State Building, the young student has already jumped to his death.
