A man dressed as Batman fell from a building in Saransk, according to local police. Law enforcement say he jumped from a window several stories up, apparently in order to kill himself. 

The victim, who fell to his death, has been identified as a 51-year-old man living on the tenth floor of the building. It's not yet known why he apparently decided to kill himself, or why he chose to do so dressed as the iconic “Caped Crusader” of DC Comics.
