A Norfolk county man is facing a murder charge in connection with the 2021 death of an infant in Port Dover, according to Ontario Provincial Police.
In a social media post, acting Sgt. Ed Sanchuk said the incident happened on March 28 sometime before 2:30 a.m. at a Sunning Hill Drive residence.
On that night, officers and paramedics responded to a “medical incident” call involving a three-month-old child.
“I’m sad to say the child was pronounced deceased in hospital,” Sanchuk said.
