On May 23, officers were called to a building on Jasper Avenue and 91st Street where they found the toddler dead in one of the suites.

Investigators say an autopsy conducted on Wednesday was unable to determine the manner of death. A toxicology report is awaited.

The homicide unit continues to investigate.
