Police reported that Spierer did not go to her fifth-floor apartment during this short visit. Surveillance video shows Spierer stumbling and Rossman helping her to her feet and walk out of the building. A few minutes later, she is witnessed by a bystander sitting down on a staircase and falling backwards, hitting her head on the concrete step. The noise of the impact was loud enough for the bystander to hear it and ask whether she was all right. According to the woman, Rossman replied, “She’s OK, I’ll take care of it.” After they continued up the street, she is witnessed falling again. Because of her intoxication level, she didn't raise her hands to cushion the blow and her face hit the ground unguarded. A few steps later, she fell a third time. At this point, Rossman began carrying Spierer.<ref name="drug use"/><ref name="People magazine">{{cite news|last=Mascia|first=Kristen|title=Missing Student Investigation: Life Without Lauren|url=http://www.people.com/people/archive/article/0,,20666241,00.html|newspaper=People|date=January 21, 2013}}</ref><ref name=Timeline/>
