ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) - Police say a 21-year-old University of Michigan student died after falling through the glass roof of the Nickels Arcade in Ann Arbor.
Police say the Saugatuck man climbed the fire escape to the top of the roughly three-story structure with a female acquaintance around 2:20 a.m. Friday.
The Ann Arbor News reports they made it over the glass roof once and were attempting to cross back when he fell. Police say he was taken to a hospital, where he died of injuries from the fall.
The woman wasn’t injured and Lt. Renee Bush tells the Detroit Free Press she was “very brave” and helped provide first aid.
Nickels Arcade is home to a collection of shops near University of Michigan’s campus. The pedestrian thoroughfare is covered with a glass roof.
