A Western Kentucky University student died early today after falling from the 20th floor of Pearce-Ford Tower.

Dylan C. Prott, 18, a freshman from Louisville, jumped from a window in his room in the tower, according to a Western report. Police were notified about the incident at 12:26 a.m.

&#8220A preliminary report indicates that Prott had disabled a safety device designed to keep the window from opening more than three or four inches,” according to the report. &#8220Safety checks of the rooms in Pearce-Ford Tower are conducted on the first Tuesday of every month, and the check on Nov. 7 showed the window safety bar in place.”

Western police are investigating. Blood and toxicology tests will be performed by the Warren County Coroner’s Office, according to the report. Results of both tests should be available within 30 to 45 days.

Western will make grief counselors available for any students who wish to meet with them, according to the report.
