Caucasian man found dead in Singapore River

A BRITISH man who died after falling nearly 30m from the rooftop of Fullerton Bay Hotel into the waters around Marina Bay last Thursday was the head of sales at the Bank of China International here.

Mr William Hart, 37, was at Lantern, a seventh-floor bar at the boutique hotel along Collyer Quay, when he was believed to have breached a metal railing and a glass barrier before plunging into the waters below at about 11.25pm.

While it is unclear how Mr Hart fell, one theory is that he had leapt from the rooftop in a game of dare.

Mr Giovanni Viterale, general manager of the hotel, told The Sunday Times that the Briton was in a group of four. It is believed one of them is a friend who was visiting from Canada.
