A four-month-old baby is dead after what Toronto police are calling a “suspicious incident” at a Toronto Community Housing building in the city’s midtown area on Wednesday afternoon.
Police say the infant was initially reported missing by a family member just before 11:30 a.m.
They said that officers “quickly responded” to an apartment building on Roselawn Avenue, near Marlee Avenue, where the baby was located.
Paramedics also attended the scene and rushed the infant to the hospital with critical injuries.
Just after 1 p.m. police confirmed that the baby has been pronounced dead. A cause of death has not been provided.
“While we recognize this is a tragic situation that raises many questions, no further details will be shared at this time. We want to reassure the public that there is no safety risk,” a Toronto police media officer said.
