Police officers were dispatched to the scene to inspect the area, and several people also attended, thinking it was a relative. "They told us it's a foreigner. Other people live here, apart from my brother," said one of those alerted by the news.

The victim was "very upset" hours before dying.

As for the victim, he was a homeless foreigner who died during a fight with another resident of the building. The victim was apparently seen very upset this Thursday when he went to buy alcohol at a nearby supermarket.
