Police in Hartford, Conn., have charged a 25-year-old babysitter with risk of injury after the 2-year-old boy in her care fell off a roof, according to police.

Police said it appears that the boy opened a window at Turner's residence at 32 Mahl Ave. in Hartford, crawled onto a second-floor roof and fell off.

Hartford police responding to the scene found the little boy crying and suffering from visible head injuries, police said.
