10-month-old dies in Laughlin home

Las Vegas police looked into the death of a baby in Laughlin on Thursday morning.

Metro was alerted by medical personnel who had responded to a home in the 1700 block of Cal Edison Drive just after midnight, police spokeswoman Laura Meltzer said. The baby wasn’t breathing.

Lokelani Morton-Speer, who was 10 months old, was pronounced dead at the scene.

Metro’s abuse and neglect unit responded, but was still waiting for a cause and manner of death from the Clark County coroner’s office before proceeding, officers said.
