COLUMBIA, SC (WIS/AP) - Mourning friends, classmates and co-workers are remembering the two young people who died after falling 50 feet off a downtown Columbia building.
Shortly after 5am Wednesday, authorities say a taxi driver found the two nude bodies on Laurel Street between Gadsden and Assembly streets.
Brent Tyler and Chelsea Tumbleston, both 21-years-old, were the victims, their clothing on the roof four stories above. Authorities have not said what they were doing or why they were on the sloped roof, which is pyramid-shaped metal, and likely was slick on a damp morning.
The two were alive when found but were pronounced dead after being taken to Palmetto Health Richland Hospital.
An eyewitness account was given to police by a homeless couple sleeping in the garage that night.
McCants says the preliminary investigation appears to show the couple died accidentally. She says there were no indications of foul play.
