The child did not sustain any serious injury.

3100 block of Queens Chapel Road: At about 4 pm maintenance workers at the Queenstown Apartments discovered an unresponsive man in a vacant apartment. Fire/rescue personnel responded and pronounced the man dead.

The man, who remains unidentified, was apparently homeless and wandered into the unlocked, vacant apartment. He had been recently treated at a local hospital and his hospital band listed his name as John Doe.
