Accident – Death – Obituary News :
Authorities have identified the woman who tragically fell to her death during an Ohio State University graduation ceremony as a 53-year-old mother whose daughter was receiving her diploma. The incident occurred last weekend just outside Ohio Stadium in Columbus.
The Franklin County Coroner’s Office has confirmed the woman’s death and stated that it is being investigated as an apparent suicide, as indicated in coroner’s documents cited by The Columbus Dispatch.
Ohio State Police have ruled out foul play and do not believe the fall was accidental, according to university spokesman Ben Johnson. The investigation into how the woman fell from the 130-foot high stadium onto the sidewalk below is ongoing.
The tragic incident took place around noon near the stadium bell tower as the last graduates were entering the stadium. The woman’s daughter was among the graduates, as noted in the admissions program.
Despite the shocking event, the graduation ceremony continued without any mention of the incident. However, some students and attendees were visibly upset following the fall. The university has since reached out to all graduates and staff who volunteered at the ceremony to offer counseling services.
