Authorities in North Carolina have indicted a mother who allegedly beat her 2-year-old daughter to death and then tried to claim the injuries were caused by the girl falling down the stairs.

Raja Drain, 28, faces charges of murder and felony child abuse in the December death of Jamie Drain in Bertie County. Cops arrested Drain in Connecticut on Monday.

Bertie County Sheriff Tyrone Ruffin told reporters cops responded to a home on Dec. 2 for a report of an unresponsive child. First responders rushed to the scene and found Jamie unconscious. After performing CPR, they transported the girl to a local hospital where she was pronounced dead. Drain claimed she was cooking in the kitchen when she heard a "thud," Ruffin said. She saw her daughter "foaming at the mouth and shaking."
