A tragic incident occurred in the Hobhouse suburb last Thursday morning when a woman was taken into police custody following the death of her three-year-old son. Authorities reported that an altercation took place inside the family home, leading to the child sustaining fatal injuries. Emergency services responded quickly, but the boy could not be saved. The case has since been handed over to investigators to determine what may have led to the heartbreaking situation.
Community members say they are deeply shaken by the event, describing the family as quiet and previously without known issues. Police have urged the public to prioritise mental health support and to seek assistance whenever they feel overwhelmed or in crisis. The investigation remains ongoing, and officials have encouraged anyone with relevant information to come forward as the community mourns the loss of a young life.
