Inkster police are investigating the deaths of a 30-year-old woman and her 2-month old child.

Officers say they were discovered by the woman's husband, who called 911.

It's believed the woman, who was recently put on a new medication for a medical condition, slumped down on the stairs and died while carrying the infant. The baby was suffocated.

Officers say the father called the house all day, but there was no answer. He discovered the bodies when he arrived home.

At this time foul play is not suspected. The names of the family have not been released.
