Prison for man who threw 5-year-old boy over Mall of America balcony

A 24-year-old Minneapolis man pleaded guilty Tuesday morning to throwing a 5-year-old boy over a third-floor balcony at the Mall of America in Bloomington last month.

Emmanuel D. Aranda entered the plea to one count of attempted first-degree murder in Hennepin County District Court during what is typically an early, procedural hearing.
