ORANGE PARK, Fla. -- The case of a toddler who was largely unharmed after falling from a second-story window is closed.
A 2-year-old boy fell around 5:30 p.m. Saturday at a home on the 300 block of Sunstone Court in Orange Park, according to the Clay County Sheriff's Office. Investigators said the toddler fell out the window but was unharmed.
The mother of the boy had been cleaning the home, when she opened the windows to clear fumes from the air. She went to work shortly afterwards and left her husband watching the children.
At one point, the husband went to use the bathroom and when he returned the 2-year-old was no longer in the bed where he has been, the report said. The father went downstairs and found that the toddler had fallen out of the open upstairs window, hit a porch overhang and landed in a bush.
The sheriff's office said the child was taken to Shands with minor injuries. The sheriff's office said the case is closed with no charges filed.
