An aspiring model jumped to her death from the top of a Times Square hotel moments after getting into a brawl with her boyfriend.
Dezirae Andersen, 20, was found dead after plunging from the roof of the OYO Times Square hotel on West 47th Street around 10.30pm on Tuesday.
Andersen and her boyfriend Tyler Griffin, 24, had been staying in the hotel with their eight-month-old baby girl after traveling from Littleton, Colorado.
Hours before her death, Andersen - who also had ambitions to be an actress - posted a video of Times Square on her social media, with her friends paying tribute to the 'beautiful soul'.
Police say that Andersen and Griffin got into a fight in their hotel room on the 10th floor of the building.

Griffin is accused of punching Andersen repeatedly before their brawl spilled out into the hallway.
He then reportedly yanked the baby's arm forcefully, causing the little girl to fall down a flight of stairs, according to the New York Post.
A hotel guest caught the infant, who miraculously did not sustain any injuries in the fall, but was hospitalized for an evaluation.
Authorities say that Andersen then made her way to the roof before jumping to her death. Police responded to a 911 call of an assault.
When officers arrived, they discovered the young woman on the second-floor scaffolding outside of the hotel, unconscious and unresponsive.
A GoFundMe has been set up for the young mother to help her family return her body to Colorado.
