A young woman has been charged with throwing an eight-week-old baby at police officers.
The 21-year-old appeared in the Hamilton District Court this morning where she faced one charge of throwing the infant at police.
According to court documents, the Hamilton mum was responsible for the care of the baby and her conduct was a “major departure from the standard of care expected of a reasonable person”.
She did not apply for interim name suppression and no more details were available.
