West Jordan police are investigating what they’re calling the “suspicious” death of a 20-month-old boy.
When officers arrived at the boy’s home at about 5:35 p.m. April 11, the boy was in “full arrest.” He was “obviously not breathing and unconscious,” and his father was performing CPR on him. Paramedics arrived just after the police, and attempted to revive the boy.
According to a search-warrant affidavit, the boy's mother and father told police “they heard what sounded like someone falling down the stairs … but did not hear [the boy] scream or cry.” The parents said they found their son “at the bottom of the stairs unresponsive.
