Cops said Barbara Heller accidentally fell from an apartment window to the sidewalk below, where workers were uloading produce in front of a market.(snip)
Heller said his former wife landed on a plastic storage bin that jutted out from a first-floor ledge on the E. 81st St. building before dropping onto the boxes of produce.(snip)
“She hadn’t been feeling well and she was having trouble breathing,” said Blue, who said Heller has chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. “She wanted to get some air so I opened the window for her about a foot. She opened it the rest of the way and was leaning out. I heard this loud crash, but you hear a lot of crashes on First Ave. I’m nosy, so I ran out onto the terrace and it didn’t even occur to me it was her. When I looked down I thought she was dead and I was freaking out. I just ran down there.”
Blue said when she got to the sidewalk, a woman was helping her friend. She was trying to get up

‘I opened it a crack, she opened it, she fell’
Apparently Editors are no longer in existence.
A sentence dropped out when the article was copied:
Heller apparently landed on a plastic storage bin that jutted out from a first-floor ledge before dropping onto the boxes of produce, pictured here Friday.
Heller was in the apartment with a friend, Kelli Blue, who said Heller went to the window to get some air because she was feeling hot.
“She hadn’t been feeling well and she was having trouble breathing,” said Blue, who said Heller has chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. “She wanted to get some air so I opened the window for her about a foot. She opened it the rest of the way and was leaning out. I heard this loud crash, but you hear a lot of crashes on First Ave. I’m nosy, so I ran out onto the terrace and it didn’t even occur to me it was her. When I looked down I thought she was dead and I was freaking out. I just ran down there.”

Me too! I kept going back and re-reading the first paragraph, hoping to figure out who was who.
