A man and woman have been charged with criminal negligence causing death after a 22-month old child was found dead in an Owen Sound home.
On July 2, Owen Sound Police, along with Grey County Paramedic and Owen Sound Fire and Emergency Services, responded to a 9-1-1 call around 10 a.m. regarding a child in need of medical attention.
