Two elderly persons were seriously injured in separate falls at their homes.

The police said that in one accident in Santa Venera on Tuesday, an 85-year-old man fell a height of around one storey after feeling sick.

He was initially in critical condition in hospital but his condition later improved.

Early yesterday morning, a 70-year-old woman suffered serious injuries when she fell through a window of her Mellieħa house about two stories up. Both of the cases are under investigation.
