A two-year-old girl has died after being  pulled out of her pram and thrown to the ground by a man during a row with her  mother over a parking space.

The Chinese toddler suffered critical  injuries in the attack on Tuesday and died two days later after being kept alive  by a respirator in a Beijing hospital.

The man, named only as Han, wanted to park  his car at a bus stop on the city’s Keji Road, but the mother and pushchair were  in his way.

The mother refused to make way immediately  because she was tending to her daughter.

Han, a convicted thief in his 40s, is said to  have got out of his car to hit the mother before taking the little girl out of  her pram and hurling her ‘forcefully’ to the ground.

He was arrested in a hotspring bathhouse and  could face the death penalty if charged with murder, Chinese state media  reports.

A stallholder known as Zhou told the Beijing  Times: ‘The baby made no noises after being dropped, not even a cry of  pain.’

Another man, said to be the passenger in the  car, is said to have helped the driver attack the mother before the pair drove  away.

The passenger, who also has a criminal  record, gave himself up to police on Thursday, Xinhua reported.
