    Police have arrested a man in relation to the death of 10-month-old Poseidyn Hemopo-Pickering


    The child died on September 6 in Starship Hospital, after being taken there from a South Auckland address the night before.

    A 31-year-old has been charged with assaulting a child and is due to appear in Manukau District Court on Monday.

    Detective Senior Sergeant Kevin Tiernan says the investigation is ongoing.

    He says further charges are pending.

    Anyone with information relating to the case should call 105 or Crimestoppers anonymously.
