4 dead, 1 injured, after apparent fall from Swiss building

GENEVA (AP) — Swiss police say four people have been found dead at the foot of a building in the lakeside city of Montreux. A fifth person is hospitalized in serious condition. Swiss daily newspaper Blick cited an unidentified police official who said that the five had jumped from a building. A spokesperson for the Vaud regional police told The Associated Press that they were found at about 7 a.m. Thursday outside a building near the city’s famed Casino Barriere. He declined to provide further details and said he couldn’t immediately confirm Blick’s report. Montreux is known as a tourist hot spot and in particular for its annual jazz festival.
