To be attributed to Detective Senior Sergeant Michael Deegan, Central District Investigation Manager:
Police are investigating after a 6-month-old baby was found with critical injuries at a Foxton Beach house on Sunday 29 June.
Emergency services were called to the Seabury Avenue house at around 5.30am that day.
The baby was initially transported to Palmerston North Hospital before being airlifted to Starship Hospital, where he remains in a critical condition.
Police are working to establish how the baby boy came to be injured. This includes a scene examination at the Foxton Beach house, where a scene guard is currently in place.
Seabury Avenue residents can expect to see a continued police presence in the coming days, as we conduct the scene examination and speak to neighbours as part of our enquiries.
