Las Vegas police and homicide detectives are investigating the death of a toddler in the northwest part of the valley.
Police received a call just before 6:30 p.m. at the 7800 block of Clarkdale Drive, near Vegas Dr. and Buffalo Dr. from a mother reporting that her child had drowned in the bathtub.
Responding personnel transported the 3-year-old to Summerlin Hospital Pediatrics, but the child later succumbed to the drowning.

The cause and manner of death and identity of the victim will be released by the Clark County Coroner’s Office.
This is the 14th homicide investigated this year by the LVMPD.
