While we recently published news of the 12th Foxconn employee to attempt a suicide, and then immediately updated the story with new of a 13th jumper, those reports are already dated.


According to a string of Tweets, reports, pulled (allegedly censored) reports and rough translations, now 15 Foxconn employees have jumped in attempted suicide—two of whom seem to have been part of a successful double suicide earlier today. To make matters worse, a potential 16th was spotted on the roof in the picture seen here. We haven't heard any update regarding that potential jumper at this time. [ChinaSmack via Shanghaist via tips]
