In St. Petersburg, passers-by caught a child who fell out of a window on the 10th floor

A two-year-old boy fell out of a 10th-floor window on Bogatyrsky Lane in St. Petersburg, but passersby managed to catch him. This was reported to Izvestia on February 26 by the Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia in the Primorsky Territory.

According to the child's mother, she briefly left the room where her young son was. When she returned and did not find the child, she noticed an open window and people under the house, and then ran outside.

One of the older brothers of the fallen child reported that he heard screams from the street and, leaning out of the window, saw how the boy ended up on the windowsill in the next room at the door, which was not equipped with a security lock. According to him, he tried to reach him, but did not have time — the child fell out.

Passers-by stretched their outerwear from below and cushioned the fall. An ambulance crew arrived and hospitalized the minor in serious condition, along with his mother, at the children's city hospital No. 2. He was diagnosed with a catatrauma and a concussion.
