Top-down lead assignment

I found this article in the Spokesman Review. titled "Mother charged in car seat death." The lead was as follows:

"Spokane County prosecutors charged a Post Falls woman with vehicular homicide Tuesday in the death of her infant daughter, who was severely injured by a car’s airbag while riding in a rear-facing car seat in Spokane."

I felt like this was a very well put together lead. It tells us:
Who: Spokane County prosecutors
What: charged a Post Falls woman with vehicular homicide in the death of her daughter
When: Tuesday
Where: Spokane
and how the daughter died, "who was severely injured by a car's airbag while riding in a rear-facing car seat."
