A whimpering, badly injured little girl is found in a cat carrier in Berlin in the Altglienicke district in front of an apartment building. The toddler is said to have been thrown from the third floor of the building on Monday afternoon, according to media reports, probably by his mother. A police spokesman initially did not want to confirm this in the evening.
