developing tonight a deadly fall a
nine-year-old boy died when he found
from a high-rise leaving a family in
mourning tonight local 10 News reporter
Nicole Perez is live from aventura with
the tragic details Nicole and right now
investigators are still trying to figure
out how this happened so this is where
it happened if you take a look it's in
this building right behind me on the
12th floor which is the roof of this
building and if you look closely you can
see sort of a glass barricade around the
roof residents are allowed up here so
right now we're trying to figure out how
this boy fell 12 stories into this park
I was because I thought it was students
from the school across the street from
the echo building panicked when they
heard the police sirens saw the
ambulance and helicopter overhead we're
really scared because we didn't know
what's going on at all and no one told
us they just want us to stay inside and
we thought something like a school
shooting was happening it wasn't a
school shooting Aventura police
responded to but a call of an
unresponsive child at the Peace Park
authorities confirming a nine-year-old
boy fell from the roof of the echo
building into the park as soon as the
call came in the school resource officer
assigned to the Charter elementary
school across the street arrived within
minutes and began CPR on the boy despite
all of the efforts of the police
officers and fire rescue to try to
revive the child unfortunately he was
pronounced deceased upon arrival at Joe
DiMaggio 13 year old Milton surrett
heard the sirens and saw the emergency
response team arrive from his classroom
he says he's proud of his school
resource officer for doing all that he
could to try and save the little boy the
boy sadly passed away but I think he's a
hero for trying to hope from Sky 10 you
could see investigators on the roof of
the building where the incident happened
as well as in the park working to find
out how this happened
you know divided times weren't in this
country healing and hope is a lot of
what we need and that was Michael
manzoor he has no connection to this
family whatsoever he just heard the
story he's a resident and he wants to
help he's gonna hold a vigil here at
this park on Sunday at 7:00 p.m. and is
asking everyone and anyone to come out
come together and pay tribute to the
family
we're live in Aventura
