KUALA LUMPUR, June 6 — A four-year-old boy was killed after he is believed to have fallen from the balcony of his 30th-floor residence at an apartment in Bukit Jalil yesterday.

"The victim’s body has been sent to the forensics unit of Hospital Canselor Tuanku Muhriz, and a post-mortem examination is scheduled for tomorrow," he said in a statement yesterday.

A 37-second video of the incident has also gone viral on social media, showing a man believed to be a family member in tears next to the child, whose body was covered with a cloth.
