CALGARY – Police have arrested a man and woman in the death of a toddler.

Emergency crews were called to a Calgary home in October 2021 for reports of an 18-month-old boy in medical distress.

Police say the boy was found unresponsive and pronounced dead at the scene.

The child has been identified as Gabriel Sinclair-Pasqua.

Police say detectives completed a lengthy investigation that involved speaking with witnesses, reviewing evidence and autopsy results, and determining the events leading up to the child’s death.

The death has since been declared a homicide and police say the identities of the man and woman will not be released until charges are formally laid.
