   A Minnesota mom dragged her 11-year-old son out of bed and threw   
   him off the balcony of their fourth-floor apartment, before   
   punching and spitting on responding officers, investigators said   
   Wednesday.   
      
   Itayvia Lloyd, 33, admitted to the attack on her child, but has   
   yet to explain the incident, St. Paul police spokesman Steve   
   Linders told reporters.   
      
   A witness called police after seeing the child fall from the   
   balcony, thinking it was a suicide attempt, Linders said. The   
   boy was found lying in a courtyard with significant injuries,   
   and was unable to tell officers and paramedics what happened.   
      
   The child suffered at least one broken femur, a fractured jaw   
   and head injuries, but was expected to survive, Linders said,   
   adding he may be “injured emotionally as well.”   
      
   A 6-year-old sibling was also found in the apartment unharmed.   
      
   Lloyd told investigators she threw her child over the balcony   
   and was arrested, police said.   
      
   During Lloyd’s arrest, she tried to punch an officer who was   
   putting her in handcuffs, according to a criminal complaint   
   obtained by FOX9 Minneapolis. After she was placed in a holding   
   cell at a county jail, the document stated she approached an   
   officer and spat on his face.   
      
   Lloyd was charged Tuesday with two counts of assault on a peace   
   officer. She was not charged in the attack on her child. Her   
   bail was set at $10,000 and she was due in court Wednesday.   
      
   Online court records do not list an attorney who can comment on   
   her behalf. Prosecutors are still reviewing the case, Ramsey   
   County Attorney's spokesman Dennis Gerhardstein said.   
      
   Police Chief Todd Axtell described the incident as a “tough”   
   call and “unthinkable” for responding officers in a statement on   
   Facebook.   
      
   “As someone who calls Saint Paul home, I feel the concern that   
   is coursing through our community,” Axtell said. “I also know   
   that we can and will rally around this child, his family and   
   each other – by being kind to one another, reaching out if we   
   see people in need and asking for help when we need it for   
   ourselves.”
