A window pane shattered on the seventh floor of a Brooklyn building Tuesday, sending shards of glass flying onto the sidewalk below, with some landing in a baby stroller and cutting an infant, according to police and witnesses.
The glass broke on a building on Willoughby Street in downtown Brooklyn when someone opened the window to clean it, according to people who work on the floor. The window crumbled instantly.
The shattered glass landed on a parked car and, according to witnesses, into a baby stroller.
"The baby had a little scratch on top of his head," said Anna Felix of the Bronx. "He was bleeding. It was a small cut, but still, a baby, like five or six months."
Photos on Twitter show the stroller at the back of an ambulance as emergency responders attended to the baby.
No one else was hurt, according to authorities.
A book review company leases the space where the window broke. The building management did not want to comment Tuesday.
