Columbia police are investigating the deaths of a young couple found naked on a city street after apparently falling four stories from a rooftop.
Columbia Police Sergeant Florence McCants says the man and woman were in their early 20s.
Shortly after 5am Wednesday, authorities say a taxi driver found the two nude bodies on Laurel Street between Gadsden and Assembly streets in downtown Columbia.
Police Chief Dean Crisp said it appears the people fell from a building. The two were alive when found but were pronounced dead after being taken to Palmetto Health Richland Hospital.
McCants says the preliminary investigation appears to show the couple died accidentally. She says there were no indications of foul play.
Clothing was discovered on the roof, about 50 feet above the street. And that leads authorities to suspect the man and woman may have been having sex.
The incident happened near the Old Chamber of Commerce building in downtown Columbia near Finlay Park.
The names of the victims have not been released.
I think they were having sex on the roof because they couldn't find an isolated place for sex without the risk of getting caught by someone.
Ironic, isn't it?
Wonder if he fucked faster than he fell? *uses...a theory*
Y'know I sat for about 10 minutes trying to think of a funny thing to say... but I couldn't! Am I broken!?
Talk about going out with a bang...haha.
The best part about the news story was the toothless homeless dude they interviewed that was a "witness." "They was havin' a good time!"
I know I am going to hell, but I couldn't help but laugh when I just read that the girl's last name was TUMBLEston.
