Toddler dies from 4th-floor condo unit

MANILA, Philippines - A two-year-old boy died when he fell four floors from the bedroom window of their condominium unit in Parañaque City Thursday night.

Chief Inspector Enrique Sy, head of the city police investigation unit, said Jadden Zachariah Gan climbed up to the window from the bed, where he had been resting with his mom, Andrea, 33. Andrea is a flight attendant.

The child was rushed to the Olivarez Medical Hospital but was declared dead on arrival. Police said Jadden’s parents refused to have his body autopsied “because they believe that what happened is an accident.” Sy said the police will still conduct an investigation.
