Neighbour says man had shouted about jumping from balcony hours before officers arrived
A man who fell to his death from a balcony when police fired a Taser last week had been in distress for hours before officers were called, a neighbour has said.
Police have not named the man, who was described as quiet, solitary and kind by neighbours in Peckham, south-east London, on Tuesday. Mourners who laid flowers at the scene said they wished they could have done more to help him.
