Council employee jumps off 6th floor

A HARARE City Council traffic employee (name withheld) has allegedly committed suicide this morning by jumping from the sixth floor of Cleveland building.

A close workmate of the deceased said he was "a quiet person who rarely shared his personal issues."

Those who were with him on the field said he was his usual quiet self and nothing looked suspicious.

"He jumped off the sixth floor and landed on the windscreen of an NP 200 company vehicle

"Some were saying he was holding a ticket that he had presumably issued to a driver on the field but we can't find it. It must have flown off his hand when he jumped."
