Boy, two, found dead in bed after trip to park

A two-year-old boy died in his sleep after going to bed when his family got back from a trip to the park. Mum Catherine Brumfitt, 37, said she and her children had had a viral infection.

Doctors tested Albie for Covid-19 but he appeared to be getting better. She took Albie to their local park before going home and putting her son to bed, along with his brothers Jenson and Caleb.

When she got up the next morning, Albie wouldn't wake up. She told The Echo: "He was very cheeky, he was just a happy and loving little boy. Him and Jenson were just inseparable. They were together all the time. Caleb has additional needs so he wasn't as involved. It was always Jenson and Albie together.
