Overview

• Investigators in Bashkortostan opened a case for attempted murder of a minor and detained the 34-year-old Ufa resident suspected of throwing his daughter from a fourth-floor window.
• Regional health authorities say the three-year-old was delivered in extremely serious condition to Children’s Hospital No. 17 and is undergoing surgery.
• Prosecutors released video from the apartment showing rooms ransacked and belongings hurled into the courtyard, and forensic examinations and witness interviews are underway.
• Authorities say the mother, a pedagogue, was away at a sanatorium in Kaliningrad with the family’s older disabled son, and the family had previously been considered “normal.”
• Officials told RIA Novosti the suspect received psychiatric treatment about 15 years ago, and in separate incidents prosecutors took oversight after a 17-year-old in a buggy hit two four-year-old boys near Moscow and police detained a 68-year-old in a Primorye bus assault on a schoolgirl.
