<p>The incident happened at the department store in Cheadle on Monday, with police and ambulances called to the scene at around 4pm.</p>
<p>Greater Manchester Police said they responded after receiving reports that a 60-year-old woman had fallen from the upper floor of the shop on Wilmslow Road.</p>
<p>The woman suffered hip and spine injuries in the fall, which saw her plummet about 60ft, a spokesman told the Press Association.</p>
<p>He added: “Her injuries are not thought to be serious and it appears that she fell on to a bed.”</p>
<p>The woman was taken to hospital following the incident, which is reported to have happened by the glass balconies of the store’s escalators.</p>
<p>A John Lewis spokesman confirmed there had been a “serious incident” at its Cheadle branch on Monday.</p>
<p>He added: “We closed the shop immediately and are offering partners who witnessed the incident our full support.</p>
<p>“We are continuing to work closely with the emergency services and have passed on CCTV footage to the police.</p>
<p>“We are glad that the customer’s injuries are not thought to be serious, and our thoughts are with the customer and her family.”</p>
