A two-year-old fell from the second floor of a multi-family house in Vienna on Friday. The little boy seems to have been very lucky: When the police and emergency services arrived, no obvious injuries were found on the child. An ultrasound initially showed no signs of internal injuries, according to the APA. The child was taken to a hospital for further examination.

The accident occurred around 12:15 PM in an apartment in Donaustadt. A passerby happened to witness the incident and called emergency services. The toddler fell from an open window on the second floor, from a height of about six meters, as police spokeswoman Julia Schick said.

"When the officers arrived, the 28-year-old mother was holding her son in her arms. The boy had no obvious injuries and was responsive," the spokeswoman said. The emergency services provided initial care, and then the two-year-old was taken to the hospital.

"Further investigations into the course of the accident are underway," said Schick. "The guardians have been reported on suspicion of negligent bodily harm."
