Watch: Dad Tosses Baby From Window, Jumps After To Escape Building Fire

In footage shared by the South Brunswick Township Police Department, we see several panicked first responders near the building -- which is enveloped in flames and smoke -- telling the father to pass his three-year-old baby from the window.

A man was forced to toss his 3-year-old son and also jump from a second-floor window of a building to escape a fire in a heart-pounding video from New Jersey, US.

In the footage shared by the South Brunswick Township Police Department's public relations office, we can see several panicked first responders near the building, which is enveloped in flames and smoke. Standing beneath the building with their arms spread, the officers try to persuade the man trapped on the second floor to throw his infant down.

We can hear the officers shouting “pass the baby down”. As the father clears a passage out the window, we can see debris raining down. He then tosses the horrified infant out the window before leaping from the second storey, head first.

The incident occurred last week and the terrifying ordeal was captured on an officer's body camera.
