A man jumped to his death from the 16th floor of a posh Upper East Side building – after apparently bludgeoning a woman to death inside, cops said.
The 30-year-old man was found dead in a courtyard behind the co-op at 180 East 79th Street at around 10:30 a.m., police said.
A 65-year-old woman was found dead in the bedroom of an apartment on the 16th floor, a police spokesman said. She had trauma to her head.
Police were investigating the crime as a possible murder-suicide, cops said. The medical examiner will determine the cause of death.
Units in the building start at about $1.6 million and go up to $3.5 million, according to listings at StreetEasy.com.
