ORLANDO, Fla. -- An Orange County toddler has died after falling from a window.

Deputies are investigating the 18-month-old boy's death as an apparent accident.

A 911 caller told dispatchers that the boy wasn't breathing after falling from the window on Sunday night. The child was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead.

Sheriff's Capt. Angelo Nieves says the boy only fell about three feet.

Neither the child's name nor the names of his parents were immediately released.
