LAS VEGAS, NV. (THECOUNT) — Stefan Quinton Jones-Green, of Philadelphia, has been identified as the victim killed after falling near the “High Roller” ferris wheel in Las Vegas, NV, on Friday night.

The Clark County Coroner’s office identified Jones-Green, 23, as the victim but stopped short of providing a cause and manner of death, which are still listed undetermined.

Las Vegas police said Jones-Green fell to his death down the stairs near the High Roller observation wheel Friday night.

He was taken to University Medical Center where he was pronounced dead of massive blunt force trauma injuries.

The incident appeared to be accidental, Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Lt. Richard Meyers said in a text, reported Fox5Vegas.

Lt. William Matchko of Metro Police later said Jones-Green “entered an unauthorized area on the property.”

It wasn’t immediately clear where on the property the man fell.
