Infant's death referred to Coroner

1 min read

Christchurch Police were last night called to a residential address in Christchurch, following the sudden death of a young child.  

It has been established that the child choked on a piece of food.  This is a great tragedy for the family and we extend our sympathies to them at this difficult time. 

The matter has now been referred to the Coroner.
