Lecturer jumps off University of Pretoria building

A man died after jumping off a building at the University of Pretoria on Monday, said police.

Captain Colette Weilbach said he jumped around 8am.

The Brooklyn police had opened an inquest.

"... But no foul play is suspected," she said.

The SABC reported that the man was a lecturer at the campus but police could not immediately confirm his identity.

This is a second suicide of this nature at the university as a 44 year-old lecturer jumped from the Humanities building end of July this year.
