The little boy fell out of the window of the house on Hlavní třída on the 5th floor, which is the top floor of the house. It is about 20 meters high. According to witnesses, he was alive after the fall, and rescuers took him to the nearby University Hospital, which is only a few hundred meters away.
"We can confirm the unfortunate event in Ostrava-Poruba, however, we will not comment on it," said police spokeswoman Eva Michalíková.
The boy's stepfather, who is currently working in the Netherlands, responded to the horrified reactions, as it could have happened. According to him, the mother takes good care of the children, but she needed to bounce to the toilet.
"The windows were all closed, the older brother apparently helped the little one to open the window, and tragedy was born. What happened affected not only us but also our families, "he wrote.
The University Hospital continues to fight for the life of a toddler. "The child is still in critical condition," spokeswoman Iva Piskalová confirmed.
