Toddler suffocates while playing at Sunshine Coast home

A toddler suffocated at a home on the Sunshine Coast on Sunday.

Emergency crews were called to a “medical evet” at a property on Dunning Street at Palmwoods about 11am.

It was understood the girl, aged two, died from playing with a toy.

She was rushed to the Sunshine Coast University Hospital but died some time later.

Police initially declared the property a crime scene, but later said the incident was “non-suspicious” and appeared to be a terrible accident.
