NATCHITOCHERS, La. — Police in Natchitoches, Louisiana, are searching for those responsible for killing a baby Monday night in a horrendous act of brutality.
Authorities were called to a trailer park just after 9 p.m. over a missing 6-month-old infant, who had disappeared from his home after two strangers showed up at the door, according to KSLA-TV.
KSLA reported the woman ran from the attackers and when she returned, the baby was gone.
Police said a woman at the residence opened her door and was sprayed in the face with an unknown substance.
Just over an hour later, investigators responded to a call about a fire and found a baby with "obvious burns over his body," according to the news station.
The baby later died from his injuries. Police are still investigating and haven’t made any arrests.
