A Pennsylvania woman charged in the death of her 17-month-old son is accused of texting a video of the lifeless boy's body to his father and allegedly admitted to smothering the child, according to an Allegheny County police complaint.
Christian Clark, 21, of McKeesport, is facing charges of criminal homicide in Andre Price III's death and attempted homicide for allegedly attempting to smother her 2-year-old daughter.
According to the complaint, Allegheny County police responded to an apartment at Hi View Gardens on Tuesday night after Clark called 911. When officers arrived, they found the toddler and Clark inside the apartment.
Police transported Price to UPMC McKeesport Hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 11:40 p.m. Tuesday.
Clark told a detective at the hospital that her son was a healthy child with no known medical conditions. She said she lived alone with Price and 2-year-old daughter.
