Mother quizzed over death of baby | |
(about 5 hours later) | |
North Wales Police are continuing to question a mother from Anglesey over the death of a young baby. | |
The two-month-old girl was taken to hospital from the family home at Llannerch-y-Medd on Anglesey on Wednesday morning. | |
The infant was pronounced dead at Gwynedd hospital in Bangor. | |
Officers said the death is being treated as suspicious. They said the child's mother was not under arrest, but was "helping with inquiries". | |
Emergency services were called to the house at around 0745 GMT. | |
A spokeswoman for North Wales Police said: "The death is being treated as suspicious as a matter of procedure. | |
"A post-mortem by a paediatric pathologist will be carried out later today to establish the cause of death." | |
Terraced house | |
The post-mortem examination is due to take place at Liverpool's Alder Hey Hospital under the supervision of a Home Office pathologist. | |
According to local people, the baby and her family had moved to Llannerch-y-Medd about six weeks ago and were living in a rented terraced house not far from the centre of the village. | |
The house, in Bridge Street, has been sealed off while forensic examinations and house-to-house enquiries are taking place. | |
Neighbours said police also removed a number of brown plastic bags containing what are believed to be clothes and other items from the property. |
