A quick decision cost a 16 year old boy his life after he decided to try to climb out of a high-rise apartment with bed sheets to avoid getting caught by a female friend's parents.

The boy fell to his death from a 15th-floor apartment Saturday night.

The boy - who is not being identified by police - didn't want to get in trouble for visiting a girl while her parents weren't home.

Investigators say the girl's parents returned home to find the door dead bolted. After repeated attempts to get the door opened and no answer from inside, the parents contacted the super.

It was then that two boys inside the home decided to climb out the window. One fell to his death and the other was unharmed.

Its been reported that one of them was the girls boyfriend, but that has been determined to be false.
