Jeering crowd urges suicidal man to jump - before he fell to his death

Where's our humanity for goodness sake? Why encourage someone to kill themselves? A jeering crowd urged a suicidal man in his 40s, to 'jump' before the man plunged to his death from a multi-storey car park on Saturday March 14th and many of them filmed the incident on their mobile phones

Some people were heard saying impatiently, "Get on with it", "Go on, jump,". This happened at the  Southwater shopping centre in Telford, Shrops. The man was on the rooftop for about 2 hours before finally falling to his death after being taunted. The police were around when the incident happened.

Police say they are now considering prosecuting the people who taunted the man and encouraged him to jump after thousands of people signed a petition demanding they identify and prosecute them.
