Arkansas Boy Hurt After Fall From Hotel Balcony

Little Rock police say a toddler’s fall from a hotel balcony appears to have been an accident.

Officers say 1-year-old Braylon Halton was hurt while he was at the Super 7 Motel on Interstate 30 Monday night.

KLRT-TV reports that investigators say Braylon and his mother, Arlesha Arnold, were on the balcony with another person when Braylon leaned against the balcony’s railing and it broke.

Braylon tumbled off the balcony and landed head-first onto the pavement. The child was taken to Arkansas Children’s Hospital, where he was treated for a fractured skull and bleeding.

Officers say no charges have been filed.
