Toddler falls from balcony and lives

By Rich Jones

Jacksonville, FL —

A man spots a toddler clinging to a fourth floor balcony of a central Florida hotel and makes a miraculous catch.

The kid was not hurt in the fall Wednesday night.  Orange County Sheriff's spokeswoman Denise Rollins says it was a miracle. 

Cops say the child's parents were inside the hotel room and didn't realize the kid was on the balcony.

The good Samaritan noticed the child on the balcony while in the hotel's first-floor pool area.

The Florida Department of Children and Families is now investigating because the child was unattended.
