18-year-old American arrested after allegedly throwing newborn from Paris hotel window
The American tourist accused of killing her newborn baby by tossing it out of a Paris hotel window can be revealed as a fresh-faced teenager from Oregon.
Gap year student Mia McQuillin, 18, was part of ‘a group of young people traveling in Europe’, according to French authorities.
Investigators believe she was suffering from ‘pregnancy denial’ when she wrapped the infant in a sheet and allegedly tossed it from the second floor of an Ibis Styles hotel moments after giving birth.
The child was rushed to the hospital following the horrifying incident on Monday morning but didn’t survive the 30ft plunge.
