FERGUS FALLS, Minn. (AP) — Sheriff’s officials say they’re investigating the death of a 4-month-old baby at a resort in Otter Tail County.
The sheriff’s office got a 911 call about 3 a.m. Wednesday about the child who was unconscious and not breathing. Family members were trying to revive the infant. First responders arrived and continued CPR, but the baby was pronounced dead at the scene.
