Dude tries to push girlfriend of 13-floor, he dies instead
A British tourist tried to push his girlfriend off a 13th floor hotel balcony during a drunken fight at a Mexican resort, but ended up leaping to his own death, police said on Friday.
Adrian Fletcher, 34, and Lisa Marie Miller, 30, began arguing on Thursday after an all-night drinking session with other guests at a luxury hotel in the Caribbean resort of Cancun, police said.
The couple, from a town near Manchester, England, were part of a group attending a wedding in Cancun. During the fight, Fletcher lifted Miller over the balcony of their 14th floor room, but she struggled and both tumbled onto the balcony one floor below, where he again tried to throw her off.
When hotel security guards intervened and threatened to shoot him, police said a naked Fletcher leaped over the railing "with his arms spread like an eagle" and slammed into the deck of the hotel's swimming pool.
"He was drunk. They had partied until 05:00 in the morning and then they carried on drinking," local police chief Raymundo Canche told Reuters.
Cancun, a mass of towering hotels crammed along a narrow strip of white sand beaches, attracts millions of young Americans and Europeans each year and is renowned for its flowing alcohol, debauched party scenes and warm turquoise seas.
