Supermodel Ruslana Korshunova dies in suicide leap

The 20-year-old is found dead outside her home in Manhattan

Ruslana Korshunova found dead outside her apartment block in Manhattan

Supermodel Ruslana Korshunova plunged to her death from her 9th floor apartment on Saturday.

The Kazakhstan-born beauty's body was found outside her residential building in Manhattan's Financial District, where she'd lived for just 2 months.

Police have confirmed there were no signs of a struggle and the medical examiner's office has ruled her death as suicide.

Her former boyfriend, Artem Perchenok, 24, said he dropped her off
at her apartment several hours before her death after they watched the film Ghost.

Ruslana, 20, known as 'Russian Rapunsel', had appeared on the front cover of Russian Vogue and in ads for Marc Jacobs, DKNY, Vera Wang and Christian Dior.

'Our hearts are with her family,' said a spokesman for her agency, IMG.
