Baby in peril in Pico
This from reporter Ruby Gonzales:
An 8-month-old was rushed to Presbyterian Intercommunity Hospital Thursday afternoon.
The sheriff's Pico Rivera station got a call at 4:21 p.m. about a baby not breathing from the 10500 block of Poinciana Street, said Sgt. Thomas Vernola.
He said either the deputies took the child to the hospital or escorted paramedics. He didn't know yet the child's current condition.
Inspector Sam Padilla of the Los Angeles County Fire Department said the call they received was an 8-month-old boy in full cardiac arrest.
There were no further details.
We hear Sheriff's homicide is also en route, although that is apparently routine in a case like this.
