A fall from a third-floor window

Just before 3:40 p.m. on Saturday, officers responded to Frank's home for a report of a child falling from a third-floor window.

Arriving officers found a 2-year-old unresponsive male and transported him to a local hospital in critical condition, police reported.

An investigation revealed five juveniles were left unattended in the apartment, which was in "deplorable and uninhabitable condition," Boisvert said.

Police then arrested the child's mother on the child-neglect related charges. Her children, police said, were placed into custody of the state Department of Children and Families.

On Tuesday, Boisvert said detectives were working with prosecutors to decide whether to charge Frank in connection to her son's death.

Court records show Frank is due in court on Aug. 3 for a hearing on her 10 child-neglect related criminal charges.

The case remained under investigation by police Tuesday.
