"The guy had one foot on the ledge trying to climb over the bars," he said. "He let himself go head first and landed with a thud and splatter. It sounded like a pumpkin fell off the roof."
Medics rushed the man, who was not immediately identified, to Elmhurst Hospital where he died.
Police said the victim rented a room in the apartment.
