LAFAYETTE, Ind. (WLFI) - Criminal charges are filed against a woman accused of dropping her child while resisting Lafayette Police officers.

21-year-old Brittany Getter of Chicago was issued a warning for trespassing at Cambridge Estates in Lafayette earlier this month.

According to court documents, officers were dispatched to the apartment complex Tuesday after two females got into a verbal argument.

When officers arrived, Getter was holding her one-year-old daughter while she refused to get out of a car.

Once she was removed from the car and taken into custody, she tried to pull her daughter out of the car.

While doing so, the child was dropped and fell to the ground.

The child was not injured.

Getter is charged with neglect of a dependent, resisting law enforcement, and criminal trespass.
