A Bronx man suspected of killing his former girlfriend and injuring their baby after pushing her off a balcony has been indicted for murder, attempted murder and other related charges.
Ramirez was pronounced dead at NYC Health + Hospitals/Jacobi. The baby, Natalie, suffered critical injuries and remains hospitalized.
Bronx District Attorney Darcel D. Clark called Carrasco’s actions “heinous” and “heartbreaking” in a release announcing the indictment.
“This defendant is accused of a crime that has outraged our city. His callous disregard for life has left a young mother dead and his own daughter forever altered,” he said. “He now faces justice for the loss of Nathaly Ramirez.”
Carrasco is due back in court on Feb. 16.
