Initial reports from the Metropolitan Police suggested the death was being treated as “suspicious,” a standard protocol for unwitnessed falls of high-profile individuals. however, following a thorough forensic sweep and testimony from those close to him, authorities officially confirmed that the death was a tragic accident.
