Harlem Baby Dies After Falling in Vomit
Harlem Infant Dies After Falling Off Bed and Into Bucket of Mother's Vomit

The Associated Press
NEW YORK - A 3-month-old infant fell off a bed into
a bucket of her teenage mother's vomit and died, said police, who
charged the woman with negligent homicide on Thursday.

Savarin Dejesus, 18, had left the child with a baby sitter at an
East Harlem group home where she lived to go out partying Sept. 15,
police said.

When she returned, Dejesus vomited in the bucket next to the bed
where she fell asleep with her daughter, Niah Ford, in her arms, police
said.

The infant later tumbled into the bucket and apparently drowned,
police said. Dejesus didn't discover what had happened to her baby
until the next afternoon.

The girl was taken to a hospital, where she was pronounced dead, police said.

Dejesus also was charged with endangering the welfare of a child. She was in police custody late Thursday.

A woman who answered the telephone at Dejesus' group home, the Fox House, declined to comment on the baby's death.
