At 7:30 p.m. on Friday evening, police received a report that a distressed 30-year-old female Asus employee, surnamed Sun, appeared to be preparing to leap from the company's headquarters on Lide Road in Taipei's Beitou District, reported UDN. When police arrived on the scene, they spotted the woman sitting on the ledge of the 14th floor.
Sun was seen holding a rope in her hand and appeared to be poised to jump. Several police officers tried to calm her down and convince her to move away from the ledge, but she refused.
