A three-year-old boy is in critical condition in hospital after a reported fall from a first-floor window in Rochdale on Saturday afternoon, Greater Manchester Police says. Emergency services respond to the incident at a residential property on Spotland Tops.
Multiple outlets report that an air ambulance is deployed and lands at the residential estate to assist with the emergency response. Police and other services treat the incident as a serious injury event, but the reports do not include additional information on the circumstances leading up to the fall. Coverage is consistent that the boy is taken to hospital and continues to receive medical care.
While the outlets largely agree on the location, timing, and the boy’s condition, their wording differs slightly—some describe the incident as a “fall” while others use phrases such as “plunging.” None of the reports provide further confirmed details beyond the initial response and the current critical status.
