A 16-month-old Cobb County boy was in critical but stable condition Wednesday after falling 10 feet inside his home, Acworth police said.
The toddler, whose name was not released, apparently fell from a second-floor landing to the first floor of his Terrace Drive home Tuesday evening, according to Officer Jeff Rose with Acworth police. The child's parents, who were home at the time, called 911 after finding the boy on the floor, Rose said.
When emergency responders arrived at the home, the boy was conscious and moving, Rose said. He was flown to Children's Healthcare of Atlanta at Scottish Rite, where he remained Wednesday in critical condition.
The incident is being treated as accidental, Rose said.
