A 3-year-old boy playing Spider-Man with his siblings fell out of a third-floor apartment window and was rushed to the hospital.
The fall happened just before 9:15 pm on Monday at an apartment building in Anaheim, California, local police say.
The boy was reportedly pretending to be Spider-Man and jumping on a bed when he knocked off a window screen and tumbled out of the window.
Officials say the boy’s fall may have been broken by bushes and dirt on the ground level.
The boy was bleeding from the head but conscious when he was transported to a nearby medical center.
NBC News reported that the boy suffered only ‘minor injuries’
‘You never want to have anything up against a wall that a kid could climb on to have access to a window,’ Anaheim police Sergeant Wayne Alonso told City News Service.
‘So if you have a bed or a couch in a room you don’t want to have it underneath a window even though it might appear to be nice and you can get a good breeze and all because it could be a hazard.’
The boy turns four later this week.
