Body of child discovered in Co Cork house

[Gman496]

Gardaí are treating the death of a young boy at his home in Charleville, Co Cork, as a "tragic incident".




The body of eight-year-old Anthony Ward was found at Harrison Place after gardaí were called to the scene just before 9.30am.


The house was cordoned off and the State Pathologist's office was notified.


The boy's mother, Diane Ward, was taken to hospital in a distressed state.

This is a very sad story, pity the poor parents R.I.P.

Well the police claim he didn't die of natural causes and the mother was found in a very distressed state and taken to hospital for treatment. I always feel that when the police use the phrase "Distressed state" it's almost a code word for something else altogether. Whatever happened it's tragic.

 

[wheelo]

Sorry Gman, I just re-read the article, and realised I mis read "tragic incident" as "tragic accident", have to agree with you, it sounds very suspicious
