Three arrests after Brisbane balcony fall

|

A man has been charged with attempted murder as Queensland Police seek the extradition of two other suspects from NSW after a man was critically injured in a balcony fall in Brisbane.

Police say a 37-year-old Southbrook man fell six metres from a sixth-floor apartment block balcony onto the balcony below at Spring Hill about 5.10am on December 5.

He was taken to the Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital in a critical condition.

Police on Thursday arrested a 35-year-old man at Mermaid Waters and charged him with counts of attempted murder, grievous bodily harm, break and enter, stealing and unlawful use of a motor vehicle.

He appeared before Brisbane Magistrates Court on Friday and was remanded in custody to appear again on February 13.

A 35-year-old man and a 25-year-old woman were taken into custody in NSW on Friday and are expected in court for an extradition hearing.
