TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — In what appears to be a murder-suicide, the body of a
Vietnamese woman was discovered on a sidewalk with the body of her Taiwanese boyfriend lying on a nearby car this morning (Nov. 20) in front of an apartment in Nantou County’s Caotun Township, reported TVBS.
Police received a report that a man and woman had both fallen from a high-rise apartment at 6 a.m., with the woman landing on the sidewalk and the man impacting on a parked car. When police arrived on the scene, they discovered that the two had fallen from the 11th floor of an apartment they rented together, with the woman having a 10-cm-long gash in her neck, while the man had a smaller laceration to his neck, about 2 to 3 cm in length.
According to the mother of the man, the woman, surnamed Bui (裴) had arrived to Taiwan on a marriage visa with another Taiwanese man, who she later divorced. She then started dating the 32-year-old Taiwanese man surnamed Hsu (許), and the two had been a couple for about a year before today’s tragic incident. [FULL STORY]
