Couple charged over 3-year-old girl’s death

A couple will appear in court today over the death of a three-year-old girl in Townsville yesterday.

Police were notified at around 3.30pm on Friday, when a 37-year-old Burdell woman and 29-year-old Burdell man took the girl to the Townsville University Hospital.

“Preliminary investigations indicate the young child was left inside a locked vehicle for most of the day,” Queensland Police said in a statement.

Police subsequently charged the pair with manslaughter and they are due to appear before the Townsville Magistrates Court today.
