Partner Says Drug Use Preceded Rosario Fourth-Floor Balcony Fall

Investigators say reports of a prior fight remain unconfirmed.

Overview

  • A neighbor filmed a man hanging from a fourth-floor balcony and then falling on Wednesday at Dorrego and Tucumán in Rosario, and the video spread quickly online.
  • He survived after landing on a parked police car and remains hospitalized with a reserved prognosis.
  • The man’s partner, Estefanía, 33, told judicial authorities he was altered by drug use in the hours before the fall.
  • Investigators say they have not verified claims of a couple’s argument and expect the partner to expand her statement to help explain what led to the fall.
  • Officials are collecting testimony and evidence to clarify whether the drop was accidental, self-inflicted, or tied to a dispute, as the recording keeps drawing public attention.
