Police are launching an investigation after a 30-year old man is left fighting for his life following an incident at the Mater Hospital last night.
The man fell several metres from an elevated driveway and was escorted to the hospital just before midnight for medical assistance.
While seeking assistance, the man ran through an open security door, jumped over a railing landing on the concrete below sustaining head and internal injuries.
The man was taken to John Hunter Hospital and remains in a critical condition.
