FM learned that on Saturday morning, two woman plunged 10 stories out of a window at the W Hotel in midtown Atlanta after a round of 'play fighting,' according to police.LaShawna Threatt, an aspiring model was celebrating her 30th birthday at the posh hotel when the incident occurred. She was killed as a result of the fall.

She remains in critical condition at Grady Memorial Hospital, Atlanta Police Department spokesperson Carlos Campos told the press.Witnesses reported seeing the women crash through the window at about 3:15 a.m.
About 20 friends had gathered together to celebrate Threatt's birthday, first meeting at an Atlantic Station restaurant. They then headed over to the hotel where Threatt had a rooftop party.Atlanta Police Lt. Paul Guerrucci said It appears there was no malicious act, no foul play, they were just wrestling with each other, they hit the window, the window broke, and they fell out.
Threatt worked as a model doing party promotions
for beverage companies.Williams is a background urban dancer, who also owns her own marketing company, Passionate Chonvill told AJC. This is such a sad story to hear, but my concern is was the hotel liable, because we've all been to hotels and the glass shouldn't have been that thin. I pray for the families and friends who have been effected by this tragedy.
