Wedgewood Avenue around midday, they found the 1-year-old boy in front of the building.Investigators said it appeared the child was thrown from the apartment building. Authorities later said he had a broken foot and was in stable condition.As more officers arrived on scene, a woman jumped off a second-floor balcony, landing head-first. When authorities went inside the building, they found another child - described as a 7-month-old girl - unresponsive in an apartment unit.All three were transported to an area hospital. Later Tuesday, police said the girl found inside the apartment had skull fractures and other injuries and had died.Neighbors say they often heard screaming and babies crying inside the apartment unit. Still, they are stunned at the tragic events."How can you explain something like that?" asked neighbor Raul Ramos. "Especially her own child."Police are still trying to determine a motive."We're still trying to piece those parts together to in a sense (determine) what would cause someone to, if you will, throw their children from a second-story landing?" said Upland police Capt. Marcelo Blanco.
