Seattle Man Falls To Death Down Outdoor Stairwell

Seattle Police have determined that a Washington State man found dead in an alley last week was the victim of a fatal fall incident.

The man, who police say was 41 years old, was found at the bottom of an outdoor flight of stairs fully clothed on Third Avenue on Thursday morning. Nearby residents called in the incident, telling police that they found a face down, unresponsive male in an alley. Authorities described the flight of stairs as steep and wooden. The man lived in an apartment building near where the slip and fall accident took place. Police have confirmed that the man was the victim of a fall, and that no foul play was involved.

The man has not yet been identified and his exact cause of death has yet to be determined. Police also do not know what the cause of the slip and fall accident was.
