THE BRONX — Police are looking for two men spotted fleeing an apartment building after a woman fatally plunged from a window while possibly running away from robbers.

Maria Carolina Sanchez-Tiburcio, 43, was fleeing four men who went into 940 Grand Cocnourse, near East 163rd Street, about 3:15 p.m. when she tumbled out of the fifth-floor window, police said.

The men had entered the building either to rob or fight with someone, according to the NYPD.

Sanchez-Tiburcio died of blunt impact injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene, officials said.

Police released footage Wednesday night of two men who were running from the scene the day of the incident.

The men weren't immediately described as suspects and their role in the incident wasn't immediately clear.
