A 13-year-old boy — angry over a haircut — allegedly jumped to death from a high-rise in Maharashtra’s Bhayandar area of India, police said on Thursday.
The incident took place late Tuesday night, an official said.
The boy, who was studying in Class 8, was upset after a relative took him for a trim and his hair was cut short, according to his family.
Around 11:30pm on Tuesday, he jumped from the window of the bathroom of their 16th floor flat, the official said.
He was found lying in a pool of blood in the compound. The Navghar police registered a case of accidental death and is conducting further probe.
