Allegheny County police are investigating after a 2-year-old child was found unresponsive inside a home in Munhall Thursday morning.

Police said around 1:24 a.m., they were notified of the unresponsive child in the 1400 block of Margaret Street.

The child was taken to a local hospital in critical condition.

Homicide detectives responded to the scene and initiated an investigation.

Sources tell Channel 11, the little boy may have gotten into drugs in the home and overdosed.

According to neighbors, the child and his family were outside playing in their front yard Wednesday night. Now, less than 24 hours later, he’s in the hospital fighting for his life.

When we went to the home today, no one answered the door.

It’s unclear where the child’s parents are, and if anyone will be charged.
