Mum tossed baby out NY window: Police

A NEWBORN baby has died after his young
mother tossed him from a fourth-floor
window of their New York City apartment
building, authorities say.
HE landed on courtyard pavement 12 metres
below, a prosecutor said.
His mother, 21, has been charged with murder.
Rashida Chowdhury, was awaiting arraignment
a day after three-week-old Rizwan Ahmad was
found dead in a onesie on the barren courtyard
of the building in the borough of Queens.
"This is a truly horrific and disturbing case,"
Queens chief prosecutor Richard Brown said.
"The alleged actions of the defendant are totally
incomprehensible."
Medical examiners ruled the baby's death a
homicide, saying he died of blunt impact
injuries and had suffered skull fractures and
lacerations to his brain, liver and spleen.
A neighbour told reporters she heard something
fall around 4am on Friday and then saw the
child's lifeless, bloody body in the courtyard.
