Baby Dies After Falling Three Stories During Jersey City Attack

Damien Bruno-- the three-month old baby who fell with his mother from a third story window Friday, after an alleged attack by the baby's father-- died Tuesday morning, the Jersey City Police Department said.

NBC reports the father, 19-year old Frederico Bruno, has been charged with 17 counts including attempted murder.

Police officials say Bruno let himself into the Jersey City apartment of his ex-girlfriend before allegedly stabbed her and another woman.

He then pushed the ex-girlfriend into an air conditioner causing her and Damien to plunge three stories out the window. The mother landed on top of her son.

Bruno then entered the backyard and beat the ex-girlfriend with a wooden table before fleeing to a vacant apartment in Belleville.

She remains in critical condition and in an induced coma.
