A woman was injured when she fell from an “elevated position” in Greenwich Village near the route of the city’s Five Boro Bike Tour on Sunday morning, according to the NYPD.

The unidentified 33-year-old woman was found outside a four-story building at 73 W. 11th St. near Sixth Avenue in Manhattan after a 911 call came in about 9:15 a.m.

It was not clear how far up the woman was when she fell.

The building is near the corner of West 11th Street and Sixth Avenue — the road that tens of thousands of riders pedaled up early Sunday as part of the event. Cops wouldn’t say whether the victim was watching the event.

Although the investigation is still ongoing, cops said they have no reason to believe there was foul play.

“Right now, we have no criminality suspected,” the Police Department representative said.
