"When officers arrived on scene they discovered a female and male adult on the ground of a side yard with multiple injuries to their body and facial area,'' according to a police report. "It appeared both subjects fell from a window located on the third story of a three-level residential home.''

The woman was pronounced dead at the scene while the man was taken to an area hospital in critical condition, police say. Their names and ages have not yet been released.
