Here are the top three stories today in Manchester:

1. On Tuesday, a 5-year-old boy fell out of a third-floor window in Manchester. The boy, who was unconscious, was transported by ambulance from Elm Street to a nearby hospital; later, he was taken by medical helicopter to a Boston, Massachusetts, hospital. As of Wednesday evening, no other information was available. (WHDH)
2. Since Monday night, Corvette enthusiasts have been lining up outside MacMulkin Chevrolet in nearby Nashua to pre-order the new car model. The Corvette E-Ray, an electric, all-wheel drive sports car, is drawing people from across the country to the area, as the dealership is the first to take pre-orders due to it being the No. 1 Corvette dealership in the nation. "I've never seen customers wait outside overnight from any vehicle," said Tony Dillberg, the sales manager at the dealership. (WMUR)
3. On Thursday, a 24/7 shelter will open ahead of the weekend’s dangerously cold forecast. A 40-bed homeless shelter will open at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday at the site of a former factory on Beech Street. The city has leased the site until Apr. 30 for $156,400. An additional shelter at the site of the former Tirrell House will open next Monday, Feb. 6. (Yahoo! News)
