Death of 10-month-old boy in Beaver Falls under investigation
BEAVER FALLS, Pa. (KDKA) — Beaver County detectives are investigating the death of a baby boy.
A 911 call came in around 2:10 Wednesday saying a 10-month-old wasn't breathing in Beaver Falls. Hours later, detectives were still going in and out of a house at Fourth Avenue and 15th Street.
Details are limited, but the Beaver County district attorney confirmed his detectives are investigating the boy's death.
"She came over and was crying and I was hugging her and everything," said neighbor Stephanie Tazel. "And she was telling me her baby's not breathing. And I said, 'wow.' I'm still in disbelief. She's a good mother."
"A little boy, he was so cute," she added.
Sources tell KDKA-TV that when first responders arrived, there was little they could do. An investigation is now underway.
The child hasn't been identified and the coroner hasn't released the cause and manner of death.
Beaver County District Attorney David Lozier wouldn't comment when asked if anyone was detained or in custody, only saying they are waiting on autopsy results.
