This is a heartbreaking moment a 2-year-old girl has tragically died after eating part of a poisoned cookie thrown into their garden to silence their family dog.
Heidy Valeria was rushed to a hospital two days after eating the cookie outside their home. Sadly, passed away while doctors tried their best to save her.
Local official Epigmenio Carillo said the cause of poisoning is yet to be confirmed but the family’s dog and a 6-year-old girl who was playing with the toddler both suffered the same problem.
“The truth is, the news has shocked the whole town. In fact, social media erupted when it became known what had happened,” a local resident said.
People have expressed their shock and accused a resentful neighbor of mistakenly poisoning the girl while trying to silence the noisy dog.
Officials said that they will release an announcement once the facts become available.
Another 6-year-old child was rushed to a hospital because of poisoning from an unidentified substance, Carrillo said.
It is not clear whether the condition of the child is related to Heidy’s death.
Mexican star Arturo Islas Allende said: “We lost Valeria, we lost a two-year-old girl, because of some unscrupulous characters who threw poisoned cookies in Tototlan, Jalisco.
“Those guys should be in jail.”
The family of the toddler have been given support from local law enforcement as the investigation continues.
One person commented: “That is nothing other than horrible murder. Should be capital punishment. Rest in peace.”
Another wrote: “If the scum who did this is caught they should be charged with murder rip little one.”
A third said: “This is so tragic. Rest in peace, little angel!”
