A five-year-old boy remains in critical condition after falling from a balcony in Turin's northern suburb of Corso Taranto on September 28. The child was playing on the first-floor balcony of his family's residence at Corso Taranto 181 when he lost his balance and plunged more than three meters to the ground below.
Emergency medical services from Azienda Zero responded immediately, transporting the child in code red to the Regina Margherita Children's Hospital. The boy suffered severe head and facial trauma in the fall and was admitted to the intensive care unit under the direction of Dr. Simona Quaglia. He remains intubated with a reserved prognosis, indicating the seriousness of his condition.
Investigations into the incident have revealed a potential structural issue with the balcony railing. Authorities noted the absence of an iron bar from the railing and are conducting examinations to determine whether this gap contributed to the fall or whether the bar detached during the incident. The preliminary reconstruction suggests the fall was accidental while the child was playing alone on the balcony.
The incident has deeply affected the Corso Taranto neighborhood where the family resides. Medical authorities at Regina Margherita Hospital have maintained strict confidentiality regarding the child's clinical evolution, providing no official updates on his condition beyond the initial assessment. Law enforcement continues its investigation to precisely reconstruct the circumstances and verify any potential responsibilities in the matter.
