Winston Campbell, 45, was known to victim, police say
Calgary police have taken a man into custody almost two years after the death of a toddler in the city's southeast community of Midnapore.
At approximately 2:15 a.m. on Thursday, Sept. 29, 2022, police were called to a residential complex on Bannister Manor S.E. for reports of a toddler in distress.
The two-year-old girl was transported to hospital by EMS but life-saving attempts were unsuccessful, and she was declared deceased.
Following an extensive investigation by the homicide unit and autopsy, the death was deemed a homicide. The victim was identified as Olivia Hayden of Calgary, a statement released Wednesday by the Calgary Police Service (CPS) said.
Winston Campbell, 45, was arrested on Wednesday and charged with manslaughter the next day, police said.
According to the CPS statement, the accused and victim were known to one another, and this was not a random incident.
