A 35 year old Nigerian woman has been arrested in Valencia and charged with the offence of abandoning a minor.
The woman was supposed to be looking after a young girl, also a Nigerian national, when the girl fell from the ninth floor apartment in calle Ángel Villena in the Quatre Carreres district of Valencia. The girl was alone at the time of the incident.
Fortunately, some trees cushioned her fall, although she did suffer multiple injuries and is now in the Hospital La Fe. The prognosis is ‘guarded’.
