A man has died after plunging from the third floor window of a flat.

Police rushed to Falkner Square in Liverpool at around 4pm yesterday, October 5, after reports a man had fallen out of the window.

It has now been revealed that his injuries were fatal.

When they arrived at the scene, Merseyside Police asked for help from the North West Ambulance Service (NWAS) and the Air Ambulance.

NWAS has now confirmed the patient was taken to hospital by ambulance where his injuries were found to be fatal, reports The Echo.

Merseyside Police have confirmed the death is not being treated as suspicious and a file is being prepared for the coroner.

His next of kin have been informed.

In a statement, the ambulance service said: “We were called at 3.57pm to an incident. We sent various resources, including a hazardous area response team and an air ambulance. We took one patient, who suffered fatal injuries, to hospital.”

A spokesperson from the North West Air Ambulance Charity said: “We can confirm that the North West Air Ambulance Charity was called to an incident in the L8 area on the 5th of October. H72 responded and we provided a ground escort, the patient conveyed to the Emergency Department by road ambulance with our crew escorting.”

The property where the incident took place is a three-storey building, which The ECHO understands has been broken up into a number of individual student flats.

Police officers were seen making enquiries with other people living in the building and speaking to people who were at the scene when they arrived.

Two detectives and a forensics officer arrived at the scene a number of hours after the incident.
