An eight-year-old boy has died after falling out of a window.
The boy fell out of the window of a house in Costock Avenue in Sherwood earlier this evening.
Police and ambulance crews were called at around 7.15pm and the boy was taken to Queens Medical Centre in Nottingham.
The boy has since died from his injuries, and police are still at the scene of the house while they investigate the death.
Chief Inspector Jon Scurr said: ‘This is a tragic and devastating loss of life and our thoughts are with the boy’s family and loved ones.
‘I would like to thank those that have already reported information to us, and would urge anyone who hasn’t yet done so, to please make contact as soon as possible.
‘We are acutely aware that incidents of this nature are incredibly distressing for all concerned, and are felt by the entire community.
‘If you need help, or recognise that someone does, please access support through the NHS website or call 111.’
