    Mom tries to drown her two-year-old; Runs half naked into the road

    Glendale Police and firefighters responded to a bizarre and frightening situation at the Baymont Inn. Police say when they arrived a suicidal woman was screaming outside in the street and a two-year-old child was fighting for his life.

    Around 5:30 p.m. the woman announced to her sister and mother she would kill the two-year-old and herself. The woman held true to her promise by trying to kill her two-year-old in the tub, and trying to kill herself immediately after she thought her child was dead.

    Will Labry Jr. says he saw a woman drenched in water, and nearly nude carrying a child walking through the hall of the Baymont Inn. "She just gave me the baby and was yelling and screaming and going out the door."

    That woman unexpectedly passed a two-year-old child to Labry and kept on walking into the street.

    A search warrant says first responders were concerned the child might have drowned in a bathtub. Labry says he used to work as a Nurse's Assistant and fortunately has experience in CPR. "I check to see if he was breathing then I opened his mouth did a finger sweep ya know, then white stuff came out. Then I picked him up and started burping him, and water started coming out."

    While the Inn guests learned the child began breathing again, the scene outside was far from calm. According to the search warrant the almost nude woman attempted to jump onto one of the responding fire trucks near Silver Spring and Port Washington Rd. After the woman struggled to take an officers firearm, she was tased and arrested.

    Court documents say the woman is bi-polar. Family members told investigators last month she said I'm going to have to kill myself, and my child.

    Tracey said her daughter suffers from schizophrenia and disappeared with the boy on Memorial Day weekend.

    "She is deeply mentally disturbed," Tracey said. "We looked for her all day. We looked all day and we couldn't find her."

    Glendale Police told Tracey the horrifying news that her daughter tried to kill her grandson.

    Court documents say her daughter shouted, "I can't take it anymore. I don't want to live," in the lobby of the motel, handed the dripping wet child to a guest, then ran naked to the intersection of Port Washington Road and Silver Spring. She was arrested after jumping on a fire truck and trying to take an officer's gun.

    "She just snapped," Tracey said. "I want everyone to know that this wasn't malicious. In her mind, it was the right thing. She didn't think she had help anywhere else."

    Tracey said her grandson was taken to Children's Hospital and is now doing fine. He is in protective custody. Through tears, Tracey gave this advice to families struggling with mental illness.

    "If they say they're going to harm themselves, get them some help. Don't let it fester. I'm just glad that both of them are alive. It could have been so much worse. This is bad, but it could have been so much worse."

    Tracey said her daughter remains in a mental institution.

    Now that is a seriously mentally ill woman-she obviusly has a hsitory of it and is schitzophrenic as well. This woamn obviuosly needs serious help-and her son need not be in her custody I would dare say ever again for his safety. I hope the boy is cared for, protected and loved and can grow up in a normal envirnment. I hope his extended makes sure of this!

    Sounds like this little boy was very lucky to have been handed to someone who has medical training and managed to perform cpr correctly and most likely saved his life.

    I hope he has recovered with no permanent physical damage, can't say he won't be emotionally damaged though.

    Too bad she didn't get hit by a car while she as running naked in the street. I do have some sympathy for her, I am severe bi-polar but ya know, I take my meds, take care of my kids and never once have tried to drown them even though my bad days are horrendous. I tell my oldest or my mom it is a bad day and wow they actually give a shit and take care of my kids while I lock myself in my bedroom totally flip out till my meds kick back in and then resume life.
    I love my mom because she loves me and she is a great mom she loves me so much she bought me a psp that stands for playstation portable.


    From my son, Mother's Day 2012.

    He was very lucky! Sometimes fate just seems to step in and I always love it when that happens-this little boy obviously has alot of life left to lead! I wish him well!

    A woman who tried to drown her two year-old son in a hotel bathtub in Glendale was charged with two felonies.

    The Milwaukee County District Attorney's Office filed charges of attempted first degree intentional homicide and attempted disarming of a peace officer against Tiffany A. Jones.

    According to a criminal complaint, Jones, 22, tried to drown her son, identified only as R.T., at the Baymont Inn (5485 N. Pt. Washington Rd.) on June 2.

    While responding to the location, Glendale Police officers found Jones, wearing only a bra, running and screaming hysterically in traffic in the 5500 block of N. Port Washington Road.

    When one of the officers stopped his squad car and ordered her to the ground, she "did not comply with orders and continued walking at [him] at a fast pace, yelling and waving her arms," eventually lunging "for his left hip area and attempting to disarm [him] by grabbing the grip of his pistol."
    [...]

    The boy was taken to Children's Hospital and is expected to be fine. He remains in protective custody.

    people who suffer with mental illness need a great deal of support from family and/or friends. i'm glad you have such support - it makes all the difference.
