A 5-year-old Toronto girl dropped 50 feet onto a highway by her suicidal father two weeks ago has been released from the hospital.
Doctors at the Hospital for Sick Children said Inara Amarsi had recovered from soft-tissue chest and abdominal injuries, and had no broken bones. However, the kindergartener is still recovering from a neck injury and must wear a neck brace for two more weeks, the Toronto Star reported Wednesday.
On March 6, her father, Alnoor Amarsi, picked the girl up for a scheduled visit, as he and his wife were in the midst of a hostile divorce and custody battle. He left a suicide note at his wife's home and had another in his pocket.
He parked near a bridge over a busy 8-lane highway as police began arriving. After several minutes of talks with negotiators, Amarsi suddenly flung his daughter over the railing and jumped after her. He died instantly.
In addition to physiotherapy, the girl is also undergoing counseling, the newspaper said.
