Child’s death ruled an accident

Mar 4, 2015 | 3:03 PM

The RCMP is investigating the death of a young child on the Beardy’s and Okemasis First Nation.

Police said a three-year-old boy was killed Tuesday night, in what appears to have been a terrible accident.

A source close to the community told paNOW a large television fell on the child. 

RCMP would not confirm this.  They would only say the death was not suspicious in nature, and no charges are being laid.
