The woman was identified as a 60-year-old resident of Rio Grande, N.J., according to the Atlantic Daily Voice<\/em>, a New Jersey-based news site. Her name was not released by Atlantic City police.<\/p>\n

The incident happened on Wednesday evening. Details were not immediately available.<\/p>\n

Prior Falls in Atlantic City<\/h2>\n

Similar incidents have taken place in Atlantic City at other properties.<\/p>\n

In September 2020, a man died after he fell from the second level of the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino onto the lobby floor. His identity was not released at the time.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In January 2021, a woman fell from an upper floor of the Ocean Casino Resort<\/a> parking garage onto the street below. Police described the woman as a 29-year-old Philadelphia resident. She was not identified.<\/p>\n

Nevada Deaths<\/h2>\n

Self-inflicted injuries have also occurred at casinos across the country. Last September, a man jumped from the Strat Hotel, Casino & SkyPod<\/a> in Las Vegas.<\/p>\n

He died from an apparent suicide, according to the Clark County Coroner\u2019s office. The official cause of his demise was \u201cblunt injuries,\u201d the coroner\u2019s office added.<\/strong><\/p>\n

He was a 30-year-old resident of Henderson, Nev., according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal<\/em>. Metro police did not provide a reason for him jumping.<\/p>\n

In May, an unnamed man fell from outside of a railing on a pedestrian bridge in downtown Las Vegas. He later died at a local hospital from his injuries.<\/p>\n

\n

The man was standing by the railing on the bridge over Fremont Street<\/a> that links the third level of Neonopolis and a parking garage. Neonopolis is a 250,0000-square-foot shopping mall and entertainment complex.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

It appeared the man was suicidal, KLAS<\/em>, a local TV station, reported. Initial reports did not say if the man ever told police he wanted to jump to Fremont Street below.<\/p>\n

Officers tried to negotiate with the man so the incident could end safely and peacefully, according to the Review-Journal<\/em>. They tried to get him to come down from the bridge voluntarily, KSNV<\/em>, another local TV station, reported. But eventually, he fell.<\/p>\n

If someone is struggling with mental health issues or thoughts of suicide, local hotels have encouraged them to contact the Suicide Prevention Hotline of Nevada at 877-885-4673. Or the national suicide help line can be called at 800-273-8255.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
