Dad Who Allegedly Threw Baby Off Bridge in Court

A New Jersey man charged with murder for allegedly throwing his 3-month-old daughter off a highway bridge is due in court Monday.

Shamsiddin Abdur-Raheem of Galloway Township is charged with killing Zara Malani-lin Abdur after allegedly snatching her from the care of her maternal grandmother Feb. 16.

Prosecutors charge that Abdur-Raheem tossed the baby from the Garden State Parkway's Driscoll Bridge over the Raritan River.

The child has not been found.

Abdur-Raheem has already pleaded not guilty to various charges, including attempted murder for allegedly assaulting the baby's grandmother during the abduction.
