The two students who fell from the Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity house balcony Saturday morning are in improved condition as of Monday afternoon.

The James Madison University student was listed in stable condition, and the University student was released from the University Medical Center, Charlottesville Police Lt. Ronnie Roberts said.

The students were injured early Saturday morning after a portion of a balcony railing suddenly collapsed. When an ambulance arrived at the house, the two men were lying on the ground and one student was unconscious. They were both transported to the University Medical Center.
