A three-year-old girl suffered only a broken arm after falling three stories from a Chelsea porch Sunday afternoon, a fire official said. She did not appear to have any other injuries after falling on to the dirt, Chelsea Fire Captain Richard Carroccino said. “I’m a little shocked myself, but there wasn’t a whole lot of traumatic injury that we could see,†he said. The girl climbed onto a weight-lifting bench on the porch, then toppled over the railing, falling about 40 feet, Carroccino said. She was conscious and crying in front of the triple-decker home on Chestnut Street with her family when fire officials arrived, Carroccino said. She was taken to Massachusetts General Hospital.
