Boy, 12, survives fall from 4th floor

A 12-YEAR-OLD boy was seriously injured after he accidentally fell from the 4th floor of their unit at Building 4 Centennial Village Tuesday evening in Taguig City.

The Grade 7 student was rushed to Ospital ng Makati where he was placed under observation by his attending physician after he underwent medical treatment from injuries in the body.

A report received by Southern Police District (SPD) Director P/Brig. Gen. Emmanuel Peralta showed that earlier past 6 p.m., the victim and his elder brother, 18, were left by their mother inside their unit at Bldg. 4 Centennial Village, Bgy .Western Bicutan.

The mother reportedly borrowed a cellphone from a neighbor intended for the boys’ guide in answering their modules.

A few minutes later, the elder brother went down the building to buy snacks. When he returned at around 6:40 p.m., he saw his neighbor, one alias Dudoy Albuna, already carrying the victim.

The victim accidentally fell down from the unit and landed on the muddy portion of the ground floor.
