Baby dies from bacterial meningitis in ‘dirty’ house with black mold, sheriff’s office says
Investigators say a 6-month-old boy who is believed to have died of bacterial meningitis was living in a “dirty” and “cluttered” and black-mold filled house in Big Lake deemed unlivable by health officials.
The boy died early Friday, said Sherburne County Sheriff’s Office Cmdr. Ben Zawacki.
When investigators responded to the 911 call they found an “extremely dirty and cluttered house” and “found black mold in numerous locations throughout the house,” according to a Monday statement.
The investigation into Gideon Peter Mwangi’s death is active and ongoing. No arrests have been made.
