A woman was arrested Sunday night in the death of a 1-year-old boy in Greater Grand Crossing.
The toddler was found unresponsive in the 7400 block of South Eberhart Avenue about 7:20 p.m. Saturday with visible bruising on his face, according to police. He was taken to Comer Children’s Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. An autopsy Sunday determined the boy died of multiple injuries and his death was ruled a homicide, according to the Cook County medical examiner’s office.
A 26-year-old woman was arrested at the scene and charges are pending, police said. Her relation to the child has yet to be disclosed.
