Moon Township Police: Father Finds Baby Face-Down in Bathtub

An 11-month-old girl was found unresponsive, face-down in bathwater in a home on Hassam Road, Moon Township Police said. 

Police responded to the home just after 4 p.m. Wednesday, where a man reported that he found his daughter in the bathtub, facing downward in the water and not breathing. 

Moon Police Capt. Greg Seamon said Sgt. Doug Ogden, Detective William Lonkert and Officer David Stitch arrived to the home to perform CPR on the girl until paramedics with Valley Ambulance arrived

The baby was transported to Heritage Valley Sewickley Hospital and later flown to Children's Hospital via Stat Medivac helicopter for further treatment. 

Seamon said the man was home with three children, ages 3, 6 and 8 at the time. No other adults were present. Seamon said it is unclear how long the girl was in the bathwater. 

"We do know that she's still alive," Seamon said. "But we don't know her current condition." 

Seamon said the circumstances surrounding the incident are under investigation by Moon Police and the Allegheny County Police Homicide Unit as "a matter of procedure."
