An unidentified woman fell or jumped from a 12-story building on Upper East Side on Manhattan at 4:29 p.m. on Sunday. She was pronounced dead on the scene, according to police and the Fire Department.

It is not clear which floor the woman fell from or why. “There’s no crime suspected,” a police spokesperson said. “The investigation is still ongoing.”
