Matthew Higa in Honolulu.

There was a video on Yahoo news just now, about a two and a half year old boy who was thrown onto a busy Hawaii freeway from a pedestrian overpass earlier, by a man dressed in green hospital scrubs.

Police arrested  twenty three year old Matthew Higa whom they say, occasionally baby-sat the child after witnesses saw him throwing something, followed him and called the authorities. This happened at about 11:40hrs, local time in Honolulu. The suspect was lingering around smoking a cigarette, after throwing the child off the pedestrian overpass. One or two vehicles may have struck the child, but it was unclear if he died from being hit or from the fall. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

The child who fell thirty feet onto the freeway has not yet been identified and word of the incident triggered panic amongst Honolulu parents, who flooded day care centers with calls wondering about their own children. A white sheet covered the child's body. Another video showed Matthew Higa being taken away and calling out to the news cameras: "Thank you for everything!" 

What a mental case.
