An American man is in critical condition at a hospital in Sydney, Australia after falling from a third floor balcony and impaling himself on a table leg during an alleged hookup.
The 37-year-old American man, whose name has not been released, lives and works in Sydney. On November 4, he invited a man who police describe as having a “Middle Eastern/Mediterranean appearance with dark hair and a slim build and dark hair” over to his place.
CCTV shows the unidentified man entering the apartment complex carrying just a cellphone. A short while later, he leaves the carrying a black duffle bag.
Police shared the footage on Facebook this week, along with a call for anyone with more information to please come forward.

“We seek the public’s help and assistance to try to establish the person depicted in that imagery,” Detective Superintendent Gavin Wood says.
“That person is a witness. He’s a person that we think can shed significant light on the circumstances around the fall.”
Appeal to ID witness to balcony fall
Surry Hills Police Area Commander, Det Supt Gavin Woods, has appealed for public help to ID a potential witness as detectives investigate how a man came to be critically injured after falling three floors off a balcony on 4 November 2018.

For now, police believe the man jumped from the balcony voluntarily and was not pushed, though they still have a lot of unanswered questions.
Wood adds: “For a young 37-year-old man to be in the prime of his life to be in an induced coma in a critical condition in a country he wasn’t born into, it’s horrific in anyone’s language.”
“It’s our job to work hard and establish why it’s happened. But in terms of the enormity of it, I don’t think it gets much worse.”
Wood concluded by urging people to exercise extreme caution when using hookup apps.
“Know who you are meeting, where you’re meeting them, what their intentions are and perhaps establish some safeguards beforehand such as providing close friends with those details,” he says.

Absolutely agree with you. And i would like to recommend all of you one unique place to find what you exactly need. It is for gay singles only. Just look at my name /\/\/\. There are a lot of real gay sugar “daddies” and frivolous gay singles looking for love and pleasure.

Yeah it’s just a coincidence then he jumped off the balcony after inviting the middle Eastern dude over. Yeah, right

“Middle Eastern/Mediterranean appearance with dark hair and a slim build and dark hair” does not mean Middle Eastern. The man could be Greek, of which there are a pretty good number in the city. He could be Italian, Spanish, or even from the Balkans.

@Juanjo Greece, Spain and Italy are on the Mediterranean so they would probably fall into the “Mediterranean” part of that description.

Another story of happiness and fulfillment from the world of promiscuity! It’s so liberating!

I guess you’ve never heard of domestic violence or marital rape?

radiooutmike – DV rates (which include rape and sexual assault) are lowest in marriage and highest among unmarried couples. The shorter and less stable the relationship, the higher the DV rates. So if DV and sexual assaults are your genuine concern, you should join me in rejecting a culture of hookups and promiscuity and supporting monogamous, stable marriage for LGB people.

The guy coming out of the elevator to help the trick open the door was holding his dick. What’s that about? What was going on there? I agree with the person who said the trick looks like a nice trick, he really does.
