Philadelphia police say a toddler who fell from a third-story window in North Philadelphia has been released from a hospital.

Police said the 1-year-old fell from the alleyway window of a house in the 4900 block of North 12th Street in Logan about 9:30 a.m. Saturday after apparently pushing through a window screen.

The toddler landed on a trash pile, which apparently prevented a more serious injury, police said. The child was taken to St. Christopher's Hospital for Children and was released Saturday night. - AP
