Three days after a young boy was found dead in his home near Swift Current, RCMP say the toddler was murdered.

A homicide investigation team from Regina is at the house in Webb, southwest of Swift Current. Two-year old William Michael Varyo was pronounced dead at his home when paramedics arrived Saturday afternoon.

His parents said he never awoke from a morning nap. Autopsy results led police to deem his death a homicide.
