What is it with people today ? It seems as though the only answer to peoples problems anymore is to kill themselves. Bad enough, but they always want to take someone with them. From mass murderers to someone like this poor soul, who think the only solution is to take their life. In my younger years [960s 70s even 80s] sure people killed themselves but never the amount or the ways in which thy take their lives today. Is it the generation ? It is not bravery that makes them commit suicide, but rather a psychotic mind . How bad can a situation be, that it would make you want to end your life ?

 

Man Tosses Son, Self Off Roof

A 35-year-old Brooklyn man in a custody battle over his 3-year-old son tossed the toddler off a 52-floor apartment building in Manhattan before plunging to his death Sunday afternoon, law enforcement sources said.

Authorities responded to South Park Tower on West 60th Street around noon and found the man, Dmitriy Kanarikov, dead at the scene. The boy, Kirill Kanarikov, was found alive but later died at the hospital, police said.
The man and his son landed on two roofs on 59th Street, police said. Neither of them were visible from the sidewalk.
Kanarikov and his son had no obvious connection to the building, and weren't stopped when they walked in, police said. It's not known why Kanarikov chose that spot, but authorities say he knew someone who once lived there.
Building residents said they were shocked and saddened.
"How heartbreaking, how sad it is that there was no one there to stop them, to say, 'Wait, tomorrow is another day," said Ellia Adiel.
In March, a woman clutching her baby son in her arms  plunged eight stories  out of a Harlem apartment window to her death, but the 10-month-old survived. Authorities found a suicide note in her home
