Boy Falls From Third Floor Hotel Window

A 7-year-old boy took a harrowing fall from a third-story window at a Del Mar hotel Thursday night.

The incident happened around 6:30 p.m. at the Clarion Inn in the 700 block of Camino Del Mar.

A man staying in the room below said a few Good Samaritan -- including a doctor and several medical students -- rushed to help the boy.

"I pulled up, like, as soon as it happened pretty much. There was only a couple people around, and there was a dude out here in the field who happened to be a doctor. He helped them a little bit, and then the ambulance came after that," witness Jacob White said.

Mercy Air flew the boy to Rady Children’s Hospital. There is no word on his condition.

The hotel had no comment Thursday night. The San Diego County Sheriff's Department is investigating.
