A 22-month-old child from Calhoun Falls, South Carolina, died Sunday after a piece of bedroom furniture overturned on her, Anderson County Coroner, said in a statement.
The victim, identified as Jalaya Bryant, was staying at her grandparents’ house and was trying to climb a dresser when it tumbled over and trapped her, said Anderson County Chief Deputy Coroner Don McCown, in the statement.
He added that the investigation indicates the child died due to asphyxiation and that there appears to be no indication of foul play.
Authorities in the statement said that they responded to an emergency call in Williamston, SC on Sunday afternoon for a child in cardiac arrest. The child was discovered by family members under a dresser drawer that had overturned on the child.
EMS personnel arrived on the scene, provided emergency medical care and transported the child to the hospital, where she was pronounced dead.
