A 30-YEAR-OLD woman has been taken to hospital after falling from a balcony at a home in Palmerston.

St John Ambulance NT duty manager Craig Garraway said paramedics were required to extract a woman who had fallen from a four-metre balcony in Woodroffe just before midnight on Christmas Day.

“She was transported to hospital to make sure she didn’t have too many internal injuries from that fall,” he said.
