A 23-year-old woman and a baby plunged from an apartment in New York City on Tuesday, leaving the woman dead and the baby in critical condition.<\/p>\n
A spokesperson for the NYPD said the incident happened in the early hours of Tuesday morning at 2550 Olinville Avenue in the Bronx. <\/p>\n
The spokesperson said that upon arrival, the woman and baby had \u201cinjuries indicative of falling from an elevated position.\u201d <\/p>\n
The mother, who police did not identify, and her baby were transported to a nearby hospital. The 23-year-old died from her injuries while the baby \u2014 who is under 1-year-old and a girl, according to police sources \u2014 remains in critical condition.<\/p>\n
There are no arrests at this time, according to the spokesperson, and the investigation remains ongoing.<\/p>\n
It is not yet clear whether the mother-daughter pair fell, jumped or were pushed out of the apartment building. <\/p>\n
However, NYPD detectives are looking to question the ex-boyfriend of the 23-year-old-woman, according to police sources. The sources did not name the man they are looking for. <\/p>\n
Witnesses reported hearing a disturbance in the woman\u2019s apartment before she fell to her death, according to the sources.\u00a0 <\/p>\n
Police sources said there is a history of domestic violence at the woman\u2019s address.<\/p>\n
It is unclear how high the woman and the baby were before they plunged to the ground below. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A 23-year-old woman and a baby plunged from an apartment in New York City on Tuesday, leaving the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":365951,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[38],"tags":[128,9,24,63,129,131,130],"class_list":["post-365950","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-the-bronx","tag-bronx","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc","tag-the-bronx","tag-the-bronx-headlines","tag-the-bronx-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/365950","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=365950"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/365950\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/365951"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=365950"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=365950"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=365950"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
