[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Juri] An infant living with their parents in a motel died while sleeping, prompting the police to launch an investigation.
According to the Gwangju Fire Headquarters and the Western Police Station on the 8th, at around 6:45 a.m., a report was received that a "4-month-old infant was not breathing" in a second-floor room of a motel in Chipyeong-dong, Seo-gu, Gwangju.
The infant's parents, both in their early 20s and present in the room, called 119 reporting, "When we woke up, the baby was lying face down and not breathing."
