A 16-year-old girl who fell to her death from a tower block in Oxford has been described as a 'funny but troubled' girl by one of her friends.
Natasha Saxton, a former pupil of Peers School, in Littlemore, fell from the top floor of Hockmore Tower, in Banjo Lane, Cowley, shortly before midnight on Friday night.
Paramedics were called to the scene after reports the 16-year-old had jumped from one of the flats - but Natasha was dead by the time they arrived.
Natasha had lived in the flat with her father David Braich for about two years and had left Peers in the summer and was hoping to go to college.
One of her friends, who lives in Hockmore Tower, said Natasha had been ill for a while and had made attempts on her life before.
