The parents, both 33, called an emergency health hotline after they observed their son was sleeping too much. Paramedics visited the family’s home and decided to take the baby to Auxilio Mutuo Hospital, where a doctor ordered a toxicology test. Hospital authorities reported the case to Puerto Rico’s family services agency, who will investigate in conjunction with the PRPD. Torres said that while the toddler’s parents have not been charged, they remain under investigation. IANS
