A 15-year-old boy died Thursday morning after falling five stories from a Bronx fire escape, authorities said.
The boy, identified as Leonardo Marmolejos, was discovered at the back of the Briggs Avenue building in the Bedford Park section just before 6:30 a.m.. He was pronounced dead at St. Barnabas Hospital.
The NYPD said his injuries were consistent with a fall and that it does not appear he jumped.
The medical examiner is investigating his death.
