LaShawna Threatt, an aspiring model, was killed when she and her friend fell through a 10th-floor glass window at Atlanta's upscale W Atlanta-Midtown hotel early Saturday morning. It is being reported that the girls were "play fighting" when they fell through the window.

"It appears that there was no malicious act, no foul play," Atlanta Police Department homicide commander, Lt. Paul Guerrucci, told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. "They were just wrestling with each other. They hit the window. The window broke. And they fell out."

Threatt's birthday celebration began Friday night with a dinner at Atlantic Station with friends and her father and lasted until around midnight, the story says. Threatt then went to the W hotel with friends and split a bottle of champagne among 10 to 15 people.
