An Indiana woman who was found by police with her dead toddler in the driveway of her home faces charges of child neglect.

The Shelbyville Police Department said in a news release obtained by local Fox affiliate WXIN that Sophie Igou was arrested late Wednesday night after officers responded to a call at her home. According to the release, Igou, whose age was not provided, was seen in the driveway of her home at the Westar trailer park in Shelbyville when police arrived.

Alongside her was her 22-month-old child, who was unresponsive.

After officers initially went to provide lifesaving medical care to the child, they “quickly determined that the child was deceased,” the release said.
