A newborn baby has been pronounced dead after he came out really fast that the midwife couldn’t catch him.
Grieving father Claudio Mondragon said he had witnessed the tragedy as his wife Stefania gave birth to their son Valentino.
An investigation was underway today into the incident at a hospital in the Argentinian city of Gualeguaychu, a three hour drive north of the capital Buenos Aires near to where the couple live.
The baby boy was transferred to a specialist hospital in the nearby city of Parana, but he was pronounced dead before arrival.
The freak accident happened last Thursday afternoon in a clinic called Sanatorio Pronto in Gualeguaychu.
The investigation, led by a local state prosecutor, will determine if his death is the result of medical negligence and whether anyone should face criminal charges.
Valentino, whose 26-year-old mum Stefania was 37 weeks pregnant when she gave birth, has already been buried by his grief-stricken parents.
A preliminary autopsy is said to have concluded the baby boy died from a head injury consistent with a fall.
