Baby survives 7-story fall

[cheeseburger]

PEEKSKILL, New York (AP) -- A man was arrested Monday and charged with tossing his baby daughter out a seventh-floor apartment window, police said.

The 10-month-old girl survived the 80-foot fall, crashing through several tree branches before landing on the ground. She suffered only cuts and bruises.

Police said Willie Williams barged into his ex-girlfriend's apartment late Saturday in a bid to persuade her to get back together with him.

Police said they argued and Williams dangled the baby out a window. The mother called 911 and Williams dropped the girl, police said.

"Oh, my God!" police quoted the mother as telling the 911 operator. "He killed my baby."

Williams then left the apartment, grabbed the baby and drove her to a nearby hospital.

Williams was charged with attempted murder, assault and unlawful imprisonment. He was in jail awaiting arraignment late Monday. It was unclear whether he had retained a lawyer.

Babies are pretty resiliant to injury as their bone structure is still solidifying.

I am told you could break a bone and it would heal perfectly without a trace as opposed to when you are older an might still have a visible fracture line.

But I am no doctor so WTF do I know.

Ya i can see that. My dad fell off a second story patio when he was a baby and wasn't really hurt either. It's not 7 stories, but hell even i don't want to fall off a second story balcony :P



i'm glad the baby was alright. poor thing. i can't even imagine what that guy must've been thinking to drop his (i'm assuming it's his baby) off the fucking seventh floor. SICK#!$

it reminds me of that baby that dropped of the capilano suspension bridge. they thought the mom did it on purpose. i dont realy remember what they concluded though. what is wrong with people these days.
