MARYSVILLE — On May 14 at approximately 1 p.m., Marysville Police and Fire responded to a 9-1-1 call, about an unresponsive 15-month-old infant, in the 7400 block of 47th Avenue NE. Marysville Fire District personnel reported that the infant was already dead on their arrival.

The Snohomish County Medical Examiner responded at the location and removed the infant. An autopsy was conducted on the morning of May 15, and the results indicate that the death was not from natural causes, and are instead the result of blunt trauma. A final Medical Examiner's Report has not been completed, and may take several more weeks to complete.

Marysville Police Detectives are continuing to investigate the circumstances surrounding the death. Anyone with any information regarding this case should contact Marysville Police Detective John Hendrickson at 360-363-8365.
