    SURREY, B.C. — A four-year-old boy is uninjured after climbing over a balcony railing and falling three meters.
     
    RCMP say officers and paramedics responded at around 3:30 p.m. Thursday to an apartment building in 14900-block of 105th Avenue, Surrey, B.C.
     
    Mounties say the boy left his family's apartment through a patio door and stepped onto a chair leaning against the balcony railing.
