WARNING – UPSETTING DETAILS: Police in Las Vegas arrested the 32-year-old suspect on the tarmac of McCarran International Airport after he made an apparent escape attempt

A dad is accused of killing his seven-week-old daughter after allegedly throwing her from the balcony of a second floor apartment in a fit of rage.

Police in Las Vegas arrested Clarence Martin Jr, 32, on suspicion of first-degree murder following a domestic dispute at a block of flats at around 3.45am on Saturday.

A coroner’s report concluded that the child, named London, died after suffering blunt force trauma to the head following the fall.

According to reports, the suspect had snatched the child from the mother’s arms and tossed her from the balcony after they became embroiled in a late-night argument

Martin then allegedly fled in a vehicle, crashing it twice, before eventually being apprehended by police on the tarmac of nearby McCarran International Airport after he disguised himself as an airport employee.

An online fundraiser has been launched for the funeral of seven-week-old London
