A family is grieving after a 9-year-old boy died after being found unconscious on scaffolding outside a Bronx high-rise.
Police say Sidy Fofana was found outside the Morris Heights building after a 911 call around 5 p.m. Wednesday.
He was pronounced dead at the scene.
Police say it’s unclear whether he jumped, fell or was pushed, but right now, they believe he fell.
Sidy’s parents say they no idea what could’ve happened.
They say he was going to visit his uncle who lives above them, and that’s the last they heard from him.
“The worst thing is that since it happened to now, we still have no answer how it really happened,” said Sanata Diakite, Sidy’s mother. “That’s likely every mother’s worst nightmare, that your son went upstairs only for a few minutes, and then later, the police come knocking on your door saying that they found the body of your son.”
The medical examiner is conducting a autopsy.
