A woman is dead and a baby girl is fighting for their life after falling from a terrace in the Allerton section of The Bronx, police say.<\/p>\n
Police say they responded here to 2550 Olinville Ave. around 3:38 a.m. Tuesday. <\/p>\n
Nathaly Ramirez, 23, and a baby girl were found with injuries that appeared to be caused by a fall from an elevated position.<\/p>\n
Police say Ramirez was pronounced dead at the hospital.<\/p>\n
The baby, who is 8 months old, was rushed to the hospital, where she remains in critical condition.<\/p>\n
News 12 first learned of this incident after a woman called the newsroom in tears, saying she believed a woman jumped off the building’s terrace with a baby.<\/p>\n
An eyewitness, who asked to remain anonymous, tells News 12 she heard loud noises before watching the bodies hit the ground.<\/p>\n
“I\u2019m hearing a dog barking really loud and her just screaming, ‘No, no, please don\u2019t do this, my baby, look at my baby\u2019s face. She\u2019s scared, she\u2019s terrified,’ and that\u2019s when I, at the same time, I could see something come off the terrace,” she said. <\/p>\n
Police sources say Ramirez and the baby were pushed or thrown from their 15th-floor balcony. They are now searching for a man who has a ponytail and was last seen leaving the location in a gray sweater.<\/p>\n
The incident is being investigated as a homicide.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A woman is dead and a baby girl is fighting for their life after falling from a terrace…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":370409,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[38],"tags":[128,9,24,63,129,131,130],"class_list":["post-370408","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\/370408","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=370408"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/370408\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/370409"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=370408"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=370408"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=370408"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
