N.Y. Woman Dies While Bathing Young Son
NEW YORK (AP) - A woman apparently collapsed and died while giving her 3-year-old son a bath, and the boy then drowned in the tub, police said Wednesday.
Rosilyn Hines, 51, had been bathing her son, Robbie, in the bathtub of their apartment in Queens, police said.
According to a police report, Robbie was found face down in the tub and Hines was slumped over nearby. She apparently had tried to grab a towel rack for support and pulled it off the wall, the report said.
The medical examiner's office scheduled autopsies on both victims Wednesday, but police said they did not suspect foul play.
Neighbors said Hines had taken the boy as a foster child or adopted him.
