Newborn thrown from 5th floor window by 15-year-old mum miraculously survives

The newborn that was thrown out of a 5th floor window by his teenage mum

A newborn baby boy is reported to have survived a fall from a 5th floor window building in Dongguan, China. The boy was thrown from the 33 foot height by his teenage mother just moments after birth.
According to reports, the teen mother, named as A Zhen, 15, gave birth on her own in the communal toilet of their rented accommodation on October 14. She fell pregnant after cohabiting with her 19-year-old boyfriend, who remains unidentified. Although he was at home during the birth, he was said to have washed his hands of the mother and child reports People's Daily Online.
After giving birth alone, A Zhen's despair increased, which was what prompted her to get rid of the baby through the window.
She later revealed: 'My boyfriend was very cold and didn't care for me and the baby. He kept on saying, don't keep the child. I did it because I lost my mind.'

The landlord of the building was parking his bike close to where the baby landed later when he heard the newborn's cries. He claimed he found the naked baby, still covered in blood, amidst a pile of rubbish with a piece of his umbilical cord nearby. The landlord called the police and the baby was rushed to hospital. A Zhen was immediately suspected of throwing her baby out of the window.
A doctor at Changan Hospital, where the baby was treated said: 'This baby boy fell from more than 10 metres up (33 feet), his present condition could be said to be a miracle.'
The baby suffered fractures to the humerus bone on his left arm. He has also experienced some swelling to his head and received scratches to his face. However, he is otherwise healthy and stable.
A Zhen said she tried to get rid of the baby during pregnancy but was told that she was too young to have an abortion. Throughout her pregnancy, she felt neglected by her boyfriend.
The couple lived in rented accommodation 385 miles away from A Zhen's home in Guangxi, southern China, which meant A Zhen had no other support.
Due to the girl's age, the local government has assigned a social worker to the young mother.
Police have detained A Zhen and charged her with attempted murder. They are currently pursuing her boyfriend, who has since disappeared, in relation to the incident.
After surviving the 33 foot fall with just a broken arm, the baby was found by the landlord of the building in Dongguan, southern China.
His mother, who is just 15, has now been detained by the police, reported People's Daily Online.
