WOODBRIDGE, N.J.
Father tells police he tossed baby off bridge
A man who snatched his infant daughter from the arms of her maternal grandmother while the child's mother was in court getting a restraining order against him allegedly told police he threw the baby off a bridge and into a frigid New Jersey river, prompting a massive search Wednesday beneath a busy parkway for any signs of 3-month-old Zara Malani-lin Abdur. Acting New Jersey Attorney General Paula Dow called the incident "an example of a horrific case of domestic violence." Authorities suspended the search after dark and planned to resume at daybreak today. Authorities say Shamsiddi Abdur-Raheem, 21, forced his way into the grandmother's apartment, struck her and forcibly took the baby, then fled in his vehicle.

(NOTE: this blog is limited to incidents that appear in the media and are captured by our search terms. We recognize this is not an exhaustive portrayal of all deaths resulting from intimate violence.) When is society going to realize intimate violence makes victims of us all?
