PITTSBURGH — A woman poisoned her infant son by repeatedly injecting saltwater into his feeding tube at hospitals in Tennessee and Pittsburgh in what she claimed were attempts to hasten the death of a suffering child, authorities said Wednesday.
Four-month-old Noah King is in critical condition with sodium poisoning at Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh, and police said they believe the baby’s medical problems were caused entirely by his mother.
Amber Brewington, 21, was charged with attempted homicide. Noah had suffered unexplained seizures and possible brain damage, the mother told police.
