January 6, 200719 yr CHIANG MAI, Jan 6 (TNA) A British tourist committed suicide Saturday morning by jumping from his room on the sixth floor of a condominium in this northern city, falling to his death on the roof of an adjacent building, police said. Entirely naked, the victim -- identified as Mark Anthony, age 35 -- leaped from his apartment room, breaking his neck and wrists in the fall. Police said he had lived in the central Chiang Mai condominium for more than six months. Police said Mr. Anthony had a medical checkup at a provincial hospital two days earlier and was stressed after returning to his room, apparently after learning that he was suffering from a chronic disease. Police said they would conduct further investigation. His body is now being kept at a hospital here. (TNA)-E111
