No Foul Play In Death Of Baby

Provincial police in Perth County say foul play is not suspected in the death of a baby near Stratford.

An investigation was launched after a three-week-old girl died in a home in Sebringville on Sunday, December 17. Police say an autopsy performed at the London Health Sciences Centre on Monday led investigators to believe that foul play was not a factor in the child's death.

The OPP and the Office of the Chief Coroner are still investigating.

"On behalf of the members of the Perth County OPP, I extend our sincere condolences to the family during this extremely difficult time," said Inspector Rob Scott, detachment commander, Perth County OPP.
