Police in Springfield, about 90 miles west of Boston, responded to the 18-month-old girl’s home after receiving a 911 call that a child was not breathing, said department spokesman Sergeant John Delaney. Officers found an adult administering CPR to the child, but medical personnel determined that the young girl had been dead for some time, he said.
