Witnesses in Bradford 'traumatised' by baby deathpublished at 09:27 British Summer Time 23 October 2017
Investigations are continuing in the death of a baby boy who fell from a block of flats in Bradford at the weekend.
Police have arrested a woman on suspicion of murder and she remains in police custody.
Officers were called to Newcastle House, Barkerend (pictured) to a report an 18-month-old had suffered life threatening injuries.
Police say emergency services attended and it "quickly became apparent a child had died at the scene" after falling from a window on the 6th floor.
Det Supt Nick Wallen said: “This is clearly an extremely traumatic incident and specially trained officers are working to support the child’s family members and those who witnessed what took place."
Police are not looking for anyone else in connection with the incident, but would like to speak to anyone who saw what happened.
