One day after one-year-old Traiden Tanner died at a daycare facility in Sophia, an autopsy report revealed that the child choked on food and sustained blunt-force trauma to the head.
The post-mortem examination was performed on Friday at the Georgetown Public Hospital. It was reported that the child was pronounced dead after he was taken to a nearby health centre.
The circumstances surrounding his death remain unknown, but his mother, Tonya Knights, told the media that she received a telephone call from a teacher who enquired whether she was aware that her son had a cold.
