A MAN died on Wednesday, December 27, after allegedly falling from the seventh floor of the 52-storey Philippine Bank Communications (PBCom) tower in Makati City, a police official said.

Senior Superintendent Gerry Umayao, Makati City Police chief, said the incident happened around 9:00 a.m.

He identified the man as Rissan Alarosa, a worker of MegaCity General Construction and Development Corporation.

Umayao said Alarosa landed on the side street along Ayala avenue corner V.A Rufino Street, reportedly from the building’s seventh floor.

He said investigators have yet to determine whether Alarosa accidentally fell or had jumped off the building. (Third Anne Peralta-Malonzo / VoxPop Philippines)
