TODDLER Fu Wai-lam found himself the centre of attention yesterday after he fell from a third-floor window.

But 23-month-old Wai-lam still managed a bewildered smile as he was wheeled into hospital.

Amazingly the mischievous tot only suffered a broken knee as he bounced from a tin-sheet canopy to the concrete pavement.

Wai-lam had climbed from his bed and through the window left open by his aunt as she hung clothes out at the flat in Wing Kong Street, Hunghom.

But when police called to question his aunt, Yeung Yuk-hung, 26, they found that she had overstayed her travel permit from China and she was arrested.

Wai-lam's father, a restaurant employee, said normally he and his wife locked all the windows when they went out to work.
