A mother drowned her own three-month-old baby boy to death into a water pond in Hafr Al-Batin Saturday. After throwing the baby in the water, the mother returned home and told her husband that their little boy had gone missing. The father reported the incident to the police who launched an intensive search operation and found the baby floating dead in the pond. The woman admitted killing her baby because of “his loud and continuous crying,” said Maj. Col. Yusuf Al-Qahtani, police spokesman in Eastern Province. She has been arrested and referred to a mental hospital.
