Third child 'thrown from bridge' found dead

The body of one of four children allegedly tossed from a US bridge by their father was found today, authorities said.

The identity of the child found in Mississippi was not immediately confirmed, but was believed to be one of four allegedly thrown from the bridge in Dauphin Island, Alabama, by their father, Vietnamese-born Lam Luong.

The bodies of 3-year-old Ryan Phan and his 4-month-old brother, Danny Luong, were recovered over the weekend in waters a few miles west of the coastal bridge, where authorities said the father tossed all four children on January 7 after a fight with his wife, Kieu Phan.

The bodies of the last two – Hannah Luong, 2, and Lindsey Luong, 1 – were being searched for today.
