Baby falls three stories at northwestern Indiana apartment building

Posted: Updated:
GARY -

Police in northwestern Indiana say a 10-month-old boy was badly hurt when he fell from a third-story window while his mother slept in their apartment.

Gary police Cpl. Gabrielle King says the boy was flown to a Chicago hospital for treatment after he fell on Tuesday but didn't give details of his injuries. A resident of a first-floor apartment spotted the boy after hearing cries and called for an ambulance.

King tells the Post-Tribune that investigators are confident that the boy's fall was an accident and not a result of neglect. The window from which the boy apparently fell had a loose screen.
