QUEENS — A 64-year-old man is in critical condition after falling from an East Elmhurst balcony Thursday morning, an FDNY spokesman said.

The man, whose identity was not immediately released, fell from the second floor story of a 99th Street home, near 34th Avenue, about 9:55 a.m., the spokesman added.

In the fall, he sustained facial lacerations, and was rushed to Elmhurst Hospital where he was listed in critical condition, fire officials said.
