A man and woman who reportedly were fighting fell through a third-story window of a Garden Grove home, killing the woman and critically injuring the man, authorities said Tuesday.

Police were called at 9:21 p.m. Monday to a home in the 10800 block of Lotus Drive, Garden Grove police Lt. Rich Burillo said.

The initial call was about a man and woman who were fighting, Burillo said.

“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,” he said. “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 and paramedics took the man to a hospital in critical condition, Burillo said. Their names have not been released.

Anyone with information helpful to the investigation was asked to call Garden Grove detectives at 714-741-5800.
