Police have mounted an investigation as to how a nine-month-old baby from Buxton, East Coast Demerara ate cocaine.
According to reports the child was rushed to the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC) around 10:00hrs yesterday after her mother realized that the child was ‘acting strange’.
The Buxton resident also saw a portion of “white” substance coming out from her child’s mouth. Upon examination it was discovered that the infant had chewed a small portion of the cocaine. She is now at the hospital’s Pediatric Ward.
A source from the hospital told this publication that the child’s mother had gone somewhere when the infant reportedly crept and found the cocaine.
It was also reported that the substance belonged to a family member. The police are conducting their investigations.
