A Connecticut man who fell dozens of stories from a rooftop bar to his death last week in New York had been arrested just days earlier on domestic violence charges.

Dale Cheney, a 46-year-old finance entrepreneur, fell from the Hyatt Centric Times Square's Club 54 on Jan. 25, according to the New York City Police Department, which received the call around 6:30 p.m.

The father of five was pronounced dead at the scene, and police said a preliminary investigation found no evidence of a crime.

The city's medical examiner ruled the death a suicide as the result of multiple blunt-impact injuries.
