Jennifer Lopez, 18, tossed her nephew, Victor Castaner, from the window Sunday afternoon, while other residents escaped by jumping from second-floor windows. Still more were rescued by firefighters, including Lopez and her unconscious twin sister, the boy's mother, who were carried down a ladder, said Joseph Hernandez, 24, a resident of the building who helped catch the baby.
