Floral tributes left in Westminster after death of baby girl

Floral tributes have been left outside a residential property after the death of a baby girl in Westminster. Met Police officers were called to Horseferry Road at 07:30 GMT on Saturday following reports an 18-day-old baby had fallen from height at a residential property. A 43-year-old woman arrested at the scene on suspicion of murder was taken into police custody. A police cordon has since been lifted and flowers and a toy animal were left near the Peabody Estate building on Sunday morning.

"At this stage, we believe the incident occurred within a domestic context, but we are appealing for anybody with information to come forward," she said.
