Toronto emergency medical spokesman Peter Macintyre says the victims' costumes made it more difficult for crews to assess the severity of their injuries.

Police Constable Wendy Drummond says the victims, who fell some 20 feet, suffered leg and back injuries. All were taken to hospitals but none of the injuries are considered life-threatening.
