He says the 30-year-old mother of the child was found by officers at the residence in a delirious state and not responsive to questions.

She appeared uninjured but was taken to a hospital.

Police also found the woman’s 20-year-old brother at a neighbor’s house suffering from what appeared to have a stab wound. He was taken to a hospital.

DiFonzo says police believe drugs and alcohol were involved.
