An Ecuadorian couple have died after falling from a third-floor balcony naked.

Local media reports the man, 35, and woman, 28, were having sex when they tumbled over the railing and landed on an adjacent terrace.

The incident took place after a graduation party at the woman's house in the Carapungo district in the city of Quito on Saturday, September 21.

A neighbour is said to have found the couple after hearing a loud noise and going to investigate.

Local police are investigating what caused the incident, but neighbours believe the couple fell from over the balcony wall during intercourse.

A relative of the dead woman said she left behind an eight-year-old daughter.
