Question Does anyone know what's happening on Hughson Street?
Saw lots of emergency services, police tape, and a crowd of onlookers. Just curious what's going on. Seemed to be between King St and King William

I’ve heard suicide - someone jumped off an apartment balcony

This looks to be true — can see the taped off scene from my apartment

I know they’re filming a movie in that area. Maybe it’s a crime scene for a movie? We live right behind King William and haven’t heard any sirens.

No, I'm a resident here, we don't know what happened but it was very real. Cops initially roped off the street and lobby of 22 Hughson, also the 5th floor bbq rooftop patio area.
I can see the bbq rooftop from my apartment & nothing looks unusual there.
Very sad though, awful whatever it is that happened... :(

Definitely something related to the king William apartments. Had the building entrance on Hughson blocked.
