A mother has jumped off Niagara Falls with her two young children - including a five-month-old baby - and all three are dead, police have revealed.
Chianti Means, 33, stepped over the guardrail Monday night at Luna Island — a popular overlook above the falls’ with a nearly 200-foot drop, according to New York State Police.“The circumstances remain under investigation,” state troopers said. Means and her kids — 9-year-old Roman Rossman and baby Mecca Means — were residents of Niagara Falls.Rescuers at Niagara Falls are still searching for their bodies. File picture: iStock
The mother worked as a domestic violence counselor, according to her LinkedIn profile, and graduated from school in nearby Buffalo.“I have been speechless and crying and couldn’t sleep at all,” wrote friend Kayshawna Morgane on Facebook. “My heart is broken. Mental health is no joke.”“I am literally sick to my stomach and I can’t even deal with the emotions I am feeling. Just know her and her children are dearly loved by me and my children,” she added.
