Police here say a woman who was very late in her pregnancy set herself on fire.
She was rushed to Harborview Medical Center, where the child was delivered at nearly full term, police say. The infant died shortly after it was delivered.
The King County Medical Examiner says the infant lived little more than two hours and died of asphyxia.
The 34-year-old woman is in critical condition. Police are investigating but say it's not clear that charges against her will be pursued if she survives her injuries.
The incident occurred Sunday night in the 10800 block of Southeast 238th Street.
