Preliminary results from the autopsy of an infant in Scioto County have determined there was no foul play in the death.

The cause of the death was due to double pneumonia with no signs of physical abuse.

Investigators say a man in the Franklin Furnace area called 911 on Thursday evening.

He told dispatchers the baby was having difficulty breathing.

The man drove the baby to the Green Township Fire Department and the baby was taken to the Southern Ohio Medical Center where he was pronounced dead.

The baby’s body was sent to the Montgomery County Morgue for the autopsy.
