In a tragic incident, a female student from a well-known school in Nakhon Ratchasima, Thailand, fell from the seventh floor of a school building and subsequently passed away. The case has brought back memories of a similar event in 2022, when a student fell from the same building.

 

Local police from the Muang Nakhon Ratchasima Station were alerted to the incident and promptly arrived on the scene. They discovered broken pieces of tinted glass on the second-floor rooftop, which the student had landed on after falling from the seventh floor. The injured student, identified as being in Class 19, was rushed by emergency responders to Maharaj Hospital in Nakhon Ratchasima, where she arrived in critical condition.

 

The incident occurred during class hours, shocking fellow students who witnessed the fall. Teachers and administrators quickly suspended classes temporarily and issued an immediate notice prohibiting any photos or reports about the incident, blocking access to the area to prevent further disruptions.

 

Despite emergency care, the student succumbed to her injuries, which included severe head trauma, multiple broken bones, and extensive internal injuries. According to initial reports, the student was enrolled in the school’s English Program (EP) and had a strong academic record. Known to be quiet and introverted, she reportedly had a small social circle, with only one close friend in her class of 30.

 

Police investigators have reviewed CCTV footage and examined the scene but found no indications of foul play. Authorities are continuing their investigation and are urging any eyewitnesses to come forward.
