Man, 19, Leaps To Death At Falls

SNOQUALMIE - The body of a 19-year-old Redmond man was discovered yesterday on the rocks at the base of the cliff overlooking Snoqualmie Falls. Police called the death an apparent suicide.

David Haughton parked in the lot near the falls sometime after 11:30 p.m. Saturday night, leaving a note in his car that lamented the end of a two-year romance, the King County Medical Examiner's Office reported. A bystander spied the motionless body 200 feet beneath the observation deck yesterday and phoned the police at 9 a.m.

King County Search and Rescue and the Snoqualmie Police recovered the body.
