Police were awaiting results of an autopsy Thursday, a day after a four-year-old boy died in hospital following a medical distress call to paramedics from a home in Wendover.
Hawkesbury OPP were called to the home at about 8:30 a.m. Wednesday. The boy, whose name has not been released, was later declared dead at Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario.
Const. Janice Sawbridge, a spokeswoman for the OPP, said it was not uncommon for any death that does not take place in a hospital to be the subject of an autopsy.
The OPP’s lead investigator in the case was scheduled to attend the autopsy, she said. Sawbridge said it might take several days before the coroner’s conclusions were released.
Thursday afternoon, an OPP police vehicle remained outside the boy’s home in a small apartment building on Avenue du Quai at the corner of Hwy. 17 on the outskirts of Wendover, a small town about 50 kilometres east of Ottawa.
Keith Forgie, a neighbour in the building, said he heard the emergency vehicles arrive on Wednesday morning. The boy, whose name is Felix, had autism, and was often seen outdoors playing under his mother’s supervision, said Forgie. He did not know the family’s last name, but said he believes Felix was an only child.
A snow-covered stroller, small bicycles and other children’s toys were scattered around the doorway of the apartment.
“He was always outside with her when the weather was nice,” said Forgie
