The girl died after falling from the White Tower in Hradec Králové

Police spokeswoman Iva Kormošová informed about the case. “Unfortunately, the called-up rescuers could already state death. The investigator is now investigating how the woman crashed and what caused it. A medical autopsy was ordered, “said the spokeswoman.

The tower accessible to the public is 72 meters high, the observation deck is almost 50 meters high.

Between 2016 and 2019, four suicides jumped from the tower. After the last jumps of suicides, the representatives of the town hall stated that, for example, nets could be installed on the gallery of the tower, which is the dominant feature of Hradec Králové.

“The city, in cooperation with conservationists, intends to further secure the gallery in order to prevent such tragic events,” said town hall spokeswoman Kateřina Šmídová.

The walkway of the tower has a stone railing, which is set at the top with iron frames. There are tensioned steel cables in the frames.
