DRUMMER FUCHS PLUNGES TO DEATH IN ELEVATOR FALL

!!! drummer JERRY FUCHS has been killed in a freak accident - the star plunged to his death in an elevator shaft.
The 34-year-old musician was attending a fundraiser in Brooklyn, New York, to benefit The Uniform Project, which raises money for children living in India's slum neighbourhoods.
He was travelling in a freight elevator with an unnamed male guest when it stopped a few feet above the fifth floor.
Fuchs and the other man opened the door and attempted to jump out, but while the other man landed safely, the star's clothing got caught and he fell five storeys.
The rocker, who also played for the Juan MACLean and Maserati, was found by his friends and later died at the city's Bellevue hospital.
His pal, Alex Frankel, tells the New York Post, "We found him in the elevator shaft. He was no longer able to speak."
Fuchs' mother, Joy, paid tribute to her son, adding: "He touched lives. His gift for music touched many lives."
Fuchs is the second !!! drummer to meet a tragic death - Mikel Gius was killed while riding his bicycle in 2005.
