LAYTON, Utah (AP) -- A three-month-old Layton baby has apparently suffocated to death while sleeping in a bed with her parents.
The incident happened yesterday at the family's home.
Authorities say the baby girl's mother fed the infant around midnight. The woman then told officers when she woke up several hours later, she found her daughter unconscious.
The baby was taken to the hospital, where she was later pronounced dead.
Police believe one of the parents rolled onto the child, or a pillow covered the baby's face.
So far, no criminal charges have been filed.
