CONWAY, Ark. (AP) - Authorities say a toddler suffered only minor injuries after falling from a second-story window at a home in Conway.

Conway police were called to a home on Hartje Lane Tuesday morning after a caller reported that the 1-year-old girl fell through a screen when leaning against the window.

Officials say the child was taken to Arkansas Children's Hospital as a precaution but wasn't seriously hurt.

The Log Cabin Democrat reports that officers say the incident looked "purely accidental." The girl's 21-year-old mother was not cited.
