A 3-month-old child who fell out a window and plunged three stories in his mother's arms when the baby's father allegedly attacked them at their New Jersey apartment last week has died, police said.
The baby had been listed in extremely critical condition at the hospital since the brutal attack Friday. His mother is in a medically induced coma in stable but critical condition.
A third woman who was wounded by the suspect when she tried to call 911 was expected to be released from the hospital Tuesday after undergoing emergency surgery.
