Key Facts​

New York Police Department Sergeant Anwar Ishmael told Forbes the cause of Arnal’s death is still under investigation, but it was likely a suicide.
Arnal was found around noon on Friday at the base of 56 Leonard St., the address of a famous Tribeca highrise known as the “Jenga” building, and he was pronounced dead at the scene by emergency medical services, Ishmael said.
Bed Bath & Beyond is “profoundly saddened by this shocking loss,” the company said in a statement Sunday.
Arnal joined the company in 2020 following brief stints at Avon and Walgreens and more than 20 years as an executive at Procter and Gamble, according to his LinkedIn page.
