Police launched an investigation into the death of an Ethiopian worker who fell to her death Monday in Nahr al-Mott, north of Beirut, a security source said.

The source told The Daily Star police arrived on scene at about 9 a.m. after the worker fell through the skylight of a building.

The source said investigators were examining footage from surveillance cameras around the building to determine whether a crime had been committed.
