The victim had reportedly been exercising for about 30 minutes when she stepped back from the treadmill. According to the police, there was only a 2-foot gap between the machine and the open window.

Though the gym had put warning stickers not to open windows, the sticker was reportedly damaged. The gym owner said the treadmills' backs were facing the windows because he didn't want to block the view.

While there are personal trainers who are tasked to close the open windows, one was taking a break when the incident happened. The gym was subsequently closed for three days.

The police has launched an investigation into the incident.
