A man will appear in court this morning charged with murder after a 22-month-old girl died in Wythenshawe.
Twenty eight year Michael Wild of Somerton Avenue, Wythenshawe is due to appear at Manchester and Salford Magistrates’ Court today.
The charge follows an incident last Sunday afternoon when police were called by the ambulance service to Somerton Avenue to reports that a 22-month-old girl was having a medical episode.
The girl was taken to hospital but despite the best efforts of medics she sadly died.
A post mortem revealed the child had unexplained injuries and detectives launched an investigation.
A 34-year-old woman who was arrested has been released on bail pending further enquiries.
