The woman who fell from a fourth-floor window in Old Riga in April has succumbed to her injuries in hospital, according to reports. The incident occurred on Teātra Street, where the woman, estimated to be between 20 and 23 years old, lived in the same building.

The State Police initially stated there was no indication of a criminal offense. The victim was unable to provide a statement before her death, leaving the exact cause of the fall unclear. Witnesses described a swift response from emergency services, with paramedics attempting resuscitation. After medical personnel departed, workers covered the bloodstains on the cobblestones with sand to conceal the scene.

Accounts from locals varied: some speculated the woman intentionally jumped, while others believed it was an accident. A worker nearby reported that a young woman had fallen from the window. Neighbors noted they had seen her before and knew she lived on the upper floor.
