Drunk man leaps off 'Antara' building

JAKARTA: A young Papua man, presumably drunk, jumped off the
third floor of Wisma Antara building in Central Jakarta and fell
two floors below onto the generator room.

A security guard at the building, which is the office of state
news agency Antara, said the man, William Elly Karamoy, ran into
the building after being chased by a police officer and a taxi
driver.

The taxi driver, Nurokmad, said William and two other men got
into his taxi at 2 p.m. from the National Monument (Monas) park
and asked him to go around the city without a certain
destination.

They got out at Monas without paying.

Nurokmad reported them to the police at the Hotel Indonesia
traffic circle, but they only found William.

William is being treated at the Cipto Mangunkusumo General
Hospital for fractured ribs. -- Antara
