The body was covered with a white sheet by the time the police arrived, and initial investigation found that the man’s arms, legs and neck were broken and the skull was fractured. There were no documents on his person for identification, Pitak said. 
A vendor near the site on the sixth floor said she noticed a foreigner trying to climb over the barrier, but had let go by the time she got to him.
