PANAMA CITY BEACH, Fla. (AP) - Authorities say a Panama City
Beach woman died after falling from the ninth story of a condominium building.

Police say 20-year-old Jade McCall Lofton jumped off a balcony on the east side of a condo at about 5 a.m. Friday.

Investigators at first suspected foul play after witnesses reported hearing an argument between Lofton and her boyfriend shortly before the incident.

However, police say other witnesses said Lofton had been suicidal for several days and attempted to jump off the balcony previously.
