Saskatchewan woman charged with manslaughter in child's death

RCMP have charged a Saskatchewan woman with manslaughter in the death of a child.

Mounties say 23-year-old Karrena Young of Shoal Lake Cree Nation was to make a court appearance in Melfort, northeast of Saskatoon.

Police received a report Friday about a child under 10, who had been seriously hurt at a home on the First Nation.

They say the child was unresponsive and died in the home after officers attempted life-saving measures.

Police say the death was deemed suspicious.

They add the woman and child were known to each other but gave no other details.
