Autopsy inconclusive in death of El Dorado infant

An autopsy Wednesday in Wichita did not reveal a cause of death for a 3-month-old El Dorado girl, authorities said.

The child was found at a home in the 400 block of North Denver on Tuesday morning, El Dorado police have said. The girl’s 19-year-old father was arrested on suspicion of child endangerment and obstructing police, Deputy Chief Chad Young said in a prepared statement.

Investigators are awaiting toxicology results to see if they provide clues, Young said.
