11 people jump from Paris window
Belfast Telegraph ^ | October 23, 2010

Posted on 10/24/2010 8:18:01 PM PDT by wmfights

Eleven people, including several children, were injured when they jumped from the third-story window of a suburban Paris apartment building, an official said. It wasn't known if they jumped on purpose or were forced, the judicial official said. There was no emergency in the building at the time, such as a fire.

The victims are of African origin, possibly from Angola, and an initial investigation suggested they jumped after one of the women involved became hysterical and started shouting she'd seen the devil, the official said.

Two members of the group - a 30-year-old man and a man with a criminal record who jumped out of the window holding a two-year-old child - have been taken into police custody, the official said.

All 11 victims were taken to hospital with multiple traumas. No life-threatening injuries were reported, although a four-month-old baby has been admitted to a Paris children's hospital in a serious condition, the official said.

The apartment building is located in the Paris suburb of La Verrie.

I read this to Mrs. RQSR, whom commented she ...”too has seen the Devil, and his name is Barack Obama, but she didn’t feel she needed to jump out a window.”

In these situations, the trick is to be last out. Kids are especially good fallbreakers I find.
