thought this was funnny...happened in the apartment i lived in my senior year....

an account from a friend of mine....

Sorry for the delay on this one....here is the security e-mail from some asshole falling off our roof of terra nova last weekend. my roomie johnny heard this kid moaning when he was chillin in the common room...and all the windows were closed. from what i hear is this kid was blacked out thought he was playing hide and seek and was hanging off the side of the building and wasnt able to pull himself back up. broke both his heels maybe ribs....but like not bad at all considering all things. needless to say the kids a jackass and now security is trying to have our place on lockdown, so wish the kid broke his neck ....

At approximately 3:00 AM on April 5, 2008 a guest/visitor of aresident student at 2504 Hoffman Street climbed the emergency ladder to theroof, crossed over to 2500 Hoffman Street and apparently fell from thatroof to the alley below. This guest was observed by resident students ashe proceeded to the roof and opened the emergency hatch, which is designedto provide safety for upper floor residents in a fire if they are trapped.Residents notified the Terranova building security guard, summoned 911 andthe Security Supervisor. The injured guest was removed by FUEMS to St.Barnabas Hospital in serious but stable condition. This incident is beinginvestigated by the Safety/Security Department. Students are reminded of University policy to never enter rooftopsunless they are trapped on upper floors during fire and cannot exit thebuilding because of smoke/fire below them. Rooftops are inherentlydangerous places and even more dangerous during inclement weather, whichwas the current condition during this incident.
