TOWN OF NORRIE, WI (WSAU) — The Marathon County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the death of a three-month-old child in the Town of Norrie as suspicious.
The call started with a report of an unresponsive child on November 20th. The victim was rushed to a local hospital, where they died two days later.
Investigators immediately determined that the death was suspicious and opened a criminal investigation. That led them to arrest a 27-year-old man just before Thanksgiving.
The suspect is being held on a $100,000 cash bond after a probable cause hearing and will make an initial appearance for one count of reckless homicide in late February.
Names of those involved have not been released. Additionally, it’s unclear if the suspect and the victim are related.
