An infant was found dead in a vehicle
yesterday afternoon at 300 S. Van Buren Street, according to a
report from the Mt. Pleasant Police Department.
Police were
summoned to the scene at 2:35 p.m. |
No other details
were released pending an autopsy, said Police Chief Terry Sammons.
He didn't expect any information to be released until next
week.
Dr. Kent Metcalf, Henry County medical examiner, told the
MP News at press time that nothing conclusive could be stated.
However, he said it appeared the infant had been in the car all day,
died of apparent heat stroke, the result of an apparent
accident.
The autopsy report report generally takes a week to be
returned, he said. Mt. Pleasant Police declined identifying the
family at press time.
