Woman dies, baby critically injured after they were allegedly thrown from Bronx apartment block: reports

Shopping Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days are back, but they won't last long. Shop our picks! A 23-year-old woman died and a baby was critically injured after they plunged from the balcony of a Bronx apartment Tuesday — with a witness claiming the pair were tossed over the edge.

Officers swooped on 2550 Olinville Avenue at 3:38 a.m., where they found the two victims on the ground with injuries consistent with a fall from an elevated position, the NYPD told The Post. 

Both victims were rushed to Jacobi Hospital in critical condition. The woman has since been pronounced dead.

A witness told cops one of the victims was a baby. They also claimed the infant and woman were thrown from a balcony, WABC reported. Authorities have not confirmed the pair were tossed from the balcony.

The baby, a girl, is believed to be about 5 months old, according to the outlet.

Another witness told WABC that she heard a woman yelling, “please don’t do this!” before seeing something plummet to the ground.

The relationship between the woman and child is unclear.

NYPD officers were seen entering the 18-story apartment complex amid the ongoing investigation.
