Palma.It remained unclear how the fall, suffered by a baby of British nationality, took place in Portals yesterday.
The impact left the baby unconscious and a visibly distraught mother, crying and screaming for help.
A number of people in the area at the time of the fall rallied round the mother, attempting to call for emergency assistance.
Seeing that the incident was highly serious and realising there wasn't a moment to be lost, a passer-by left the Port area heading in the direction of the old Calvia road where he managed to locate a police Traffic patrol. Officers, using radio equipment to call for advance assistance, headed immediately for the location described by the passer-by, quickly finding the desperate mother with her gravely injured child.
