The police officials also stated that an autopsy was subsequently ordered to determine the actual cause of death. The officers of the Southwestern Division and Homicide South visited the scene along with the officers of the Child Protection Unit, who are also involved in the investigation.
The citizens and residents have expressed their deep concern over the incident with several of them taking to Facebook and calling the incident as ‘shocking’.“I am really angry why the parents wait almost three hours to take her to the hospital because the grandmother is a PCA,” wrote a user named Angie, while another user claimed that it is the parent’s mistake and said, “This story makes no sense at all…. Parents are fully responsible for the death of this little princess. God bless the wrong people with children. R. I . P my little angel.”
