Quick Summary

Angel Carrasco, 31, was arrested Wednesday night by US Marshals and NYPD officers after allegedly pushing his girlfriend Nathaly Ramirez off a balcony in the Bronx around 3:40 a.m. Tuesday. Ramirez died while their eight-month-old baby survived but remains hospitalized critically. Carrasco had previously been charged with domestic violence against Ramirez twice in January, including one incident where he reportedly broke into her apartment and slapped her. Neighbors heard what sounded like a command to jump followed by loud noises and screams before the incident occurred.

Story summary

On Tuesday morning around 3:40 a.m., Nathaly Ramirez, age 23, died after being allegedly pushed with her eight-month-old daughter from the 15th-floor balcony of an apartment building at 2550 Olinville Avenue in the Bronx. The baby remains in critical condition at Jacobi Hospital. Prior to the incident, Angel Carrasco, Ramirez's estranged boyfriend and father of the child, had gone to her apartment with flowers hoping to reconcile after he was charged for two domestic violence incidents earlier that month. After his attempts failed, Carrasco allegedly pushed Ramirez off the balcony while she held their baby. Carrasco fled the scene but was arrested by US Marshals and NYPD officers on Wednesday night, showing no remorse as he smiled at bystanders calling him a coward.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political question, so it has no leaning score. That is an answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political position.
