Teen in school death fall not trying parkour stunt: Coroner

THERE was no evidence that a 14-year-old girl who died after falling four floors at Spectra Secondary School in October last year had attempted a parkour stunt, despite allusions on social media, a coroner said yesterday.

Shina Adriana Hendricks Jones had instead voluntarily taken up a challenge to climb over a parapet but she lost her balance and fell.

Yesterday, State Coroner Marvin Bay found her fall to be “entirely accidental” and her death to be a “tragic misadventure”.
