Sheriff: Infant Dies At Otter Tail County Resort

FERGUS FALLS, Minn. (AP) — Sheriff's officials are investigating the death of a 4-month-old baby at a resort in Otter Tail County.

The sheriff's office got a 911 call about 3 a.m. Wednesday about the child who was unconscious and not breathing. Family members were trying to revive the infant, authorities said.

First responders arrived and continued CPR, but the baby was pronounced dead at the scene.

The investigation into the death is ongoing, but is initially believed to be accidental, according to the sheriff's office. The baby and family are from another state and are vacationing in Otter Tail County, officials said.

An autopsy will be done by the Midwest Medical Examiner's Office.
