Body Of New Born Found In Mayo
The body of a new born baby has been discovered in a house in County Mayo.
Gardai have launched an investigation in the harrowing discovery of the body of what is believed to be a full term baby boy in a house in a village near Westport yesterday.
A post mortem has been conducted by the State Pathologist Dr Marie Cassidy and the results have been made available to the investigation team. A technical examination has taken place at the house where the baby’s body was discovered.
Gardaí said the investigation is ongoing.
The news comes in the shadow of another infant death, when last week Gardaí arrested two people in connection with the death of a 10-day-old baby boy in County Dublin.
The baby died in hospital following an incident at a house in Lusk in the north of the capital.
Gardai in Balbriggan investigating the circumstances surrounding the death, which is believed to have occurred during a party at the address, arrested the male and female who both in their mid 20s, in Navan last week.
Family members took the infant to Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital in Drogheda where he died despite intensive efforts to save him.
Forensic experts examined the house for several days and all those attending the party in the house at the time have been interviewed by the gardaí.
A Post Mortem was carried out at the Louth County Hospital in Dundalk and the results have been made available to investigating officers.
