UAE: Man jumps to death after killing wife, 2 kids in Sharjah home

An Asian man in his 30s reportedly jumped off a residential building in Sharjah on Tuesday — and confessed in a letter that he killed his wife and children before taking his life, according to the police, who are now conducting an investigation.

The Sharjah Police said that upon receiving a report about the incident at 5.45pm on Tuesday, they immediately sent emergency response teams to the site.

The patrols and the national ambulance rushed him to a hospital, but he died due to the injuries he suffered.

While the authorities were searching for more information about the man’s identity, they found a piece of paper in his clothes — in which he wrote that he killed his wife and two children in their residence before he jumped off the tower.
