A woman fell to her death from the rooftop lounge of the swanky W Hotel next to the White House, D.C. officials said.
A witness said the woman had been drinking at one of the hotel bars before she climbed the railing that surrounds the rooftop lounge late Wednesday. She was hanging from the railing before she fell 10 stories to her death.
Police are investigating.
Authorities have not released the woman’s name.
The W hotel has hosted numerous U.S. presidents and celebrities, and is where Elvis is said to have met with President Nixon serendipitously and asked to be a federal agent.
