An intern at the Museum of Modern Art literally danced to her doom while partying on a rooftop in Greenwich Village early Sunday.
The 23-year-old was swaying to the music when she tripped, lost her balance and plummeted four stories to the ground at 1:10 a.m., police sources said.
Sources and friends identified her as Cindy Yeh of Brooklyn. She’s originally from San Jose, Calif., and had been working as an intern at MoMA, according to social-media profiles and friends.
She appears to be brain-dead at Bellevue Hospital, authorities said.
Investigators are trying to determine if she had jumped up, onto or near a ledge before falling from the Sullivan Street townhouse.
