Toronto police are investigating after a six-year-old boy fell from the 10th floor of an apartment building in the west end of the city.
Investigators say the fall occurred at a building on Humber Boulevard in the Black Creek Drive and Weston Road area around 2 p.m. Thursday.
Paramedics say they transported the child to a nearby hospital with life-threatening injuries. His condition was upgraded to critical but stable late in the evening.
Police say the circumstances surrounding the incident are unclear. It’s not yet known how the child gained access to the balcony or what led up to the incident.
The incident comes less than a week after a seven-year-old boy fell from the 15th-floor balcony of a North York high-rise building under construction. Toronto police said the death is not considered suspicious.
