Last Thursday, five family members jumped one-by-one of a seventh-floor apartment in Montreux, Switzerland. Police said the family had become steeped in conspiracy and survivalist theories and withdrawn from society.

Four members of the same family killed themselves in a suspected collective suicideleap from their seventh-floor apartment. 

A French family jumped one after another from their apartment in the Swiss town of Montreux, local police investigating the tragic mystery said today.

They added that the family appeared to be fervent conspiracy theorists, hoarding food in their apartment. 

Only a 15-year-old boy survived the tragedy that happened last Thursday in the town on Lake Geneva, and he now remains in a coma in a stable condition in hospital.

The Vaud regional police announced that their findings "make it possible to rule out the intervention of a third party and suggest that all the victims jumped from the balcony one after the other".
