A prosecutor says a 5-month-old girl in southern Michigan has died of a skull fracture.
The Daily Reporter of Coldwater reports an autopsy determined the cause of death for Diane Perez, who also had a broken leg, arm and ribs. Emergency crews were called to an apartment in Bronson on Saturday on a report that she wasn't breathing.
She died Sunday at a hospital after life support was removed.
Branch County Prosecutor Terri Norris says they're "not pointing fingers at anybody" as authorities investigate the girl's death. Norris says both parents gave statements to authorities. Police in Bronson also were seeking tips from the public in the case.
Child Protective Services removed Diane's twin brother, a 3-year-old sister and a 5-year-old brother from the home.
