Authorities probe Tifton infant's death

Feb. 13—TIFTON — Authorities are investigating the death of a 22-month-old infant in Tifton.

The child died Monday morning, said Assistant Coroner Melissa Carroll.

The Georgia Bureau of Investigation will perform an autopsy on the infant, she said.

The case is separate from the Feb. 4 case, where two men were charged for abusing a different 22-month-old infant, resulting in that child's hospitalization, Carroll said.
