January 29, 2009. MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) — A man has been charged with throwing his 4-year-old daughter to her death from a traffic bridge above a river in Australia's second-largest city, officials said.The 36-year-old father was scheduled to appear in a Melbourne court later Thursday charged with her murder, police Sgt. Creina O'Grady said. He faces a maximum life sentence if convicted.The girl was rushed to Royal Children's Hospital after being dragged barely alive from the Yarra River. The hospital said she died about four hours after the 190-foot fall.The father had appeared before a family court on Tuesday and Wednesday to settle custody of the couple's three children with their mother, a court official said.The girl's two brothers may have been inside an SUV parked nearby when the man allegedly dropped the girl off the West Gate Bridge, Detective Inspector Steve Clark told reporters.The surviving children were still with their father when he was arrested about an hour later outside the family court, he said.Police have not named the suspect, the victim or other members of the family. Australian athorities often withhold information that could identify children involved in a crime as suspects or victims, or their families.The alleged murder happened during rush hour on the bridge, an eight-lane freeway linking downtown Melbourne with the city's western suburbs.Shocked witnesses called police to report seeing the girl being thrown from the bridge into the river shortly after 9 a.m.A man "dropped (her) over the bridge" into the water, and police in a boat rescued the child about 10 minutes later, Clark said.Clark said their mother had been informed but did not give details.A court official, who declined to be named because she was not authorized to speak to the media, said the custody hearing over the children had ended Wednesday without a ruling because the parents had agreed to share access.The hearing had been listed to resume Thursday, but neither parent had been expected to attend for a third day in court, she said.
