The Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office (OCSO) said it is investigating the apparent fall, which reportedly happened early Tuesday morning.

According to the OCSO, an individual staying at a neighboring condo noticed a body on the ground near an entryway outside a building at 500 Gulf Shore Drive and called 9-1-1 around 4:08 a.m. for a welfare check.

The individual was deceased when the first responders arrived, the OCSO said.
