Paramedics treated and transported the toddler to Children’s Hospital of Michigan in Detroit with a police escort, and the little boy remains in critical condition.
Officers also apologized for an incorrect update saying the child had died.
Officials say there was another young boy at the same Detroit hospital admitted under very similar circumstances and there was a miscommunication about their status.
