It is not yet clear if he jumped or was pushed.
Police say the man is in a serious condition and is not
able to talk.
A popular nightspot is situated on that Mezzanine floor of
Pioneer House which is located at the corner of Fife Street and 8th Avenue in
the city centre.
On the day the incident occured, the nightspot was hosting
the 7th Annual Summer Festival where a
host of artistes performed from the afternoon.
Some time in the evening, the unidentified man is said to
have fallen off the ledge and landed on the pavement. It is said that he
suffered broken legs.
Bulawayo police provincial spokesperson, Inspector Abednico
Ncube said:
“Police are investigating a case where an unknown person
aged around 30 years is alleged to have fallen from Pioneer House. He was
observed falling from the building and we are investigating the circumstances
that led to the fall,” Insp Ncube said.
“He has no identity particulars but is alive although in a
critical condition at Mpilo Central Hospital. His condition is very serious; he
cannot talk.”.
Insp Ncube said since the man had no identity particulars,
they were appealing for people missing any relative to come and identify him.
“We appeal to members of the public who might be missing a
relative to visit Bulawayo Central Police Station or any nearest police station
to inform them and assist to identify this person at Mpilo.
“We also urge people to seriously take care of their lives.
Should one have some problems they should approach relatives, friends or
churches or even the police and seek assistance,” said Insp Ncube. Chronicle
