Prague, Czech Republic – A 15-year-old Czech boy survived a fall from the 19th floor of an apartment block in Prague on Friday, police, rescuers and the media said.
Czech media said the boy was lucky that his fall was interrupted by the roof over the building’s entrance.
“They called us after a person fell, probably from the 19th floor,” Prague police spokeswoman Eva Kropacova told AFP.
The Prague emergency service said the boy had been placed in an artificial coma.
“The 15-year-old was … taken to the hospital with serious head and pelvic injuries,” he tweeted.
Kropacova said police were investigating the cause of the accident that occurred in a sprawling housing estate on the southern outskirts of Prague.
