A 16-year-old boy died Monday after falling through the floor in a vacant building.

Police say the boy was with two other teens when they climbed the fire escape of the old Ravenswood Hospital, located in the 1900 block W. Wilson.

When the boy opened a door he fell through a hole in the floor and landed two stories below.

The teen was taken to Illinois Masonic Hospital where he later died. The two other boys weren't hurt.
