Baby falls from 2nd floor window in Omaha home

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Police say a baby suffered only some scratches — and a big scare — in a fall from a second floor window in Omaha.

Officials were called to the home Tuesday morning for a report of a 10-month-old baby falling from the window.

When officers arrived, the baby boy had already been taken to a hospital.

Omaha police spokesman Phil Anson said that officers following up on the baby's condition learned he had fallen into a mulched area and "was perfectly fine."

Police say the baby's father said the upstairs window was open. He says the boy pushed on the screen, it popped out and the boy fell through.
