On Thursday, Dec. 29, 2011, a man peers over the balcony from which the fatal fall took place.
Ontario's Special Investigations Unit says there are no grounds to charge Toronto police after a man fell to his death from a balcony.
The SIU says police went to the 21st floor of an apartment building on Dec. 28 with arrest warrants for 31-year-old Pardeep Singh Mann.
Mann told police through a closed door that he had a gun before climbing to the balcony of a neighbouring apartment.
When police went to that balcony, Mann attempted to climb back to his balcony.
Police then saw him lying still on a ninth-floor balcony.
An autopsy determined he died from injuries suffered in the fall.
SIU director Ian Scott says Mann was trying to elude a lawful arrest and police were not responsible for his death.
