The girl aged two, who fell from the eighth floor of an apartment building in Chisinau ten days ago, died in the hospital last night.

The child was admitted to the intensive care unit of the Mother and Child Institute in a serious state. Contacted by IPN for details, spokesman for the Mother and Child Institute Maxim Cazacu said the patient had been in a coma since she was admitted. The doctors did their best, but could not save her.


When the accident occurred, the police said that the window of the apartment was open and the girl, climbing onto the standstill and leaning against the insect screen, fell out.

The parents are warned to restrict the children’s access to windows and to block these with special devices, using the vertical window opening system and not to place chairs, tables and other objects on the balcony or next to  windows as the children can mount them and fall from height.
