Officials are sounding alarms after a baby died and two others apparently also overdosed in the past week in separate instances in which fentanyl was left unsecured inside residences, authorities said. A 911 caller on Wednesday afternoon reported that a 13-month-old baby was not breathing in an apartment in Everett, the Daily Herald reported. The baby died later at a hospital, according to the Everett Fire Department.
The baby as of Thursday was in stable condition at Seattle Children's Hospital, according to the news release. Investigators don't believe the cases are connected, police said. They didn't release further information, including whether anyone has been arrested, because they said the cases remain under investigation.
