Boy, 4, dies after glass picture frame falls from wall at home and impales him

Adrian Ortega, from North Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in the United States, was playing with his two sisters when a shard of glass pierced his abdomen

A four-year-old boy died after a glass picture frame fell from a wall at his family home and impaled him.


Adrian Ortega, from North Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in the United States, was playing with his two sisters, aged two and five, when his mum Amanda Velez heard a crash.
She said her son, who screamed out for her, ran into the room to discover him bleeding profusely.
A shard of glass from the picture frame had pieced Adrian in the abdomen.

Ms Velez told  6abc : "My baby he was so full of joy. His sisters miss him.
"I carried my son. I birthed him. I was with him.
"When I went to lay him down his eyes started rolling behind his head."
Philadelphia police Chief Inspector Scott Small said: "He received a puncture or cut to his abdomen and that’s when family members transported him to St. Christopher’s Hospital."
The child was later pronounced dead just minutes after he arrived at the hospital, officials said.
An autopsy is due to be carried out to determine the exact cause of death.
