SALEM, Ore. (AP) — Police say a 1-year-old boy suffered a critical head injury in a fall from a second-story apartment window in Salem.

The boy was knocked unconscious Thursday evening when he landed on hard-backed dirt next to a sidewalk. He was taken to Salem Hospital and later flown to a hospital in Portland.

KPTV reports the boy had climbed on a couch and pushed the screen out an open window.
