A man has died after falling from a height inside a Canary Wharf shopping centre - less than 24 hours after a commuter died at the station in similar circumstances.
Paramedics were seen desperately administering CPR near a set of escalators where the stricken man, believed to be in his 50s, had plunged to the ground.
Despite their best efforts he was pronounced dead at 9.05 this morning.
Witnesses described hearing a 'ping' and a 'thud' before seeing blood on the floor surrounding the man.
A man has died after falling from a height inside a Canary Wharf shopping centre - less than 24 hours after a commuter died at the station in similar circumstances. Paramedics were seen administering CPR near the escalators where the stricken man, believed to be in his 50s, had plunged to the ground. Despite their best efforts he was pronounced dead at 9.05 today
A member of staff at the Halifax bank near to the escalators said: 'I heard a ping and then a thud so I ran out and looked over the side.
'There was a body lying on the floor he had fallen straight past me. I couldn't look anymore, I had to look away. We've been told to keep the doors closed and stay inside'.
The Metropolitan Police confirmed the man had died.
A spokeswoman said: 'Police were called at 08:44hrs on Tuesday, 8 January by the London Ambulance Service to reports of a man who had fallen from height in Canada Square, E14.
'Officers, the London Ambulance Service and London's Air Ambulance attended. The man, believed to be aged in his 50s, was pronounced dead at the scene at 09:05hrs.
'His next-of-kin have not yet been informed. A cordon is in place. Enquiries continue.'

'We are supporting the emergency services in their response.'

An air ambulance and police officers were rushed to the station in the capital's finance district at around 3pm yesterday.
Witnesses said they heard a sickening 'thud' and saw 'blood splattered everywhere'.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
