A Malaysian woman allegedly threw her newborn baby out of a third-story window recently as bystanders watched in horror.

The Daily Mail reports the baby boy is alive but in critical condition at a hospital in the city of Kajang, Malaysia.

The baby survived the fall by landing on an awning before falling to the ground on a busy city street, according to the report.

A local restaurant owner, Thayalan Paliandy, 33, said he rescued the infant after he heard a loud thud and discovered the baby.

“I didn’t know what was going on and I ran out the back of the restaurant where I saw a baby boy lying motionless on the ground,” he said. “The baby’s body had turned blue and there was blood coming from injuries on his head and from his nose. I thought he was dead but then I saw his hand move.”

He said he signaled for a van to stop, and the van driver took him and the baby to a local hospital.

Police said they have a suspect in custody.

Infanticide, like abortion, is a horrific problem across the world. Last week, a baby in South Africa was rescued from a pit toilet where the mother had thrown the infant, thinking the baby was dead.
