Sudden death of baby girl on Gold Coast 'not suspicious'

Police investigating the sudden death of a baby girl on the Gold Coast have confirmed it is not being treated as suspicious.

Officers were called to an apartment in Mermaid Beach last Tuesday after the two-year-old girl was found unresponsive.

They immediately launched an investigation and provided an update on the toddler’s death in a statement on Wednesday afternoon.

“Following the post-mortem the death is not being treated as suspicious at this time,” Queensland Police said.

“However, detectives from the Gold Coast Child Protection Investigation Unit are continuing to investigate and prepare a report for the Coroner.”

Police have not revealed how the girl died.
