A fourth-year female student was hospitalized Saturday after falling off a balcony at the Phi Kappa Psi fraternity house at about 3:18 p.m.
The student was sitting on a railing which was seven or eight feet off the ground when she fell over backwards, Charlottesville Police Lt. Ronnie Roberts said.
"Officers arrived on the scene with rescue and attended to the victim," he said. "The female victim was awake, coherent, with non-threatening injuries."
Roberts said alcohol appeared to be involved in the incident, but he does not know how much the injured individual consumed.
