A ten-month-old baby girl died on Wednesday afternoon after being found submerged in a swimming pool at her family’s home in Diego Martin.
The child has been identified as Alya Amalia Ramjit.
Police said they were notified after the child’s father, a 27-year-old man, reported that around 3 p.m. he had gone upstairs in his two-storey home to collect cream for his infant daughter. At the time, the child was in the care of her 55-year-old grandmother, who was seated at the bottom of the stairs holding her. The child’s mother, a 29-year-old woman from the Dominican Republic, had also gone upstairs shortly after.
