A man has been charged with the murder of a six-month-old baby boy in Melbourne.
Homicide Squad detectives arrested the 33-year-old man, Dwayne Lindsey, this afternoon after the baby was discovered unresponsive at a home on Isla Avenue in Glenroy about 8.40am on Sunday.
The baby was rushed to hospital, but later died.
Mr Lindsey was arrested at a home in Sunshine North and is assisting police with their investigation.
Police have not revealed the nature of the baby's injuries.
Support is being provided to the boy's mother.
"She's, as you'd expect, devastated by what's occurred," Detective Senior Sergeant Shane O'Connell told reporters earlier this week.
"It's a very tragic set of circumstances and we're assisting her with the support that we can."
