MAYS LANDING – An Egg Harbor Township woman has been charged with endangering the welfare of a child and aggravated assault in connection with an assault on an infant yesterday afternoon, Acting Atlantic County Prosecutor Jim McClain announced.
June 18, at approximately 2:20 p.m., Egg Harbor Township Police responded to a residence on the 5000 block of Ridge Avenue in regards to reports of a woman assaulting a child outside a home.
Upon arrival, police observed Tatiana Vorobev, 29, outside of the residence unclothed. Officers attempted to approach and apprehend Vorobev, but she did not comply with the officers’ commands and began flailing her body and resisting arrest. During the course of the arrest, Vorobev struck one of the officers.
Following a brief altercation, Vorobev was taken into custody and transported to AtlantiCare Regional Medical Center, City Division.
Prior to police arrival, a motorist driving by observed Vorobev striking the child, a 17- day-old baby girl, and stopped to intervene. The motorist was able to remove the baby from Vorobev and secure her until police arrived.
The child was taken to DuPont Children’s Hospital for the treatment of non-life- threatening injuries.
Vorobev has been charged with second degree aggravated assault, second degree endangering the welfare of a child, fourth degree child abuse, fourth degree aggravated assault (of a police officer) and resisting arrest.

If this were a guy, he would've been deemed a pervert for life.
No one knows what a woman goes through after having a baby unless one had a baby himself. A chemical imbalance can lead to acts like that. as far as I know, she never acted like that and was waiting for the baby. Read her Facebook page which will explain everything. Therefore, no one can judge her. Let the system figure it out
