Office fall death referred to coroner

The death of a woman who fell from a central Wellington office tower yesterday morning has been referred to the coroner.

The woman, believed to be in her 20s, fell from the Internal Affairs building on the corner of Lambton Quay and Waring Taylor St shortly before 10am.

Cafe patrons were sitting outside at Gloria Jeans just metres from where the woman landed, next to a sculpture on the street corner.

Witnesses rushed to her body but could not find a pulse.

Other reports have said that her death was not being treated as suspicious and had been referred to the coroner.
