The 26-year-old is in Royal North Shore Hospital with critical head injuries after she fell from the second storey of the apartment complex on Epping Road in Lane Cove about 11pm on Thursday.
Another resident in the complex called triple zero after hearing the woman scream, and finding her in the courtyard of an apartment below. The woman landed on concrete, and may have struck a fence when she fell.
