15 Month Old Baby Found Alone In A Home Several Days After Her Grandmother Died.

Authorities say a toddler was found alone in a
Tennessee home several days after her
grandmother died.

The Knoxville News Sentinel reports a Maryville
Police Department report says the 15 month old
girl was found alive but dehydrated and very
hungry on Saturday.

The police report says her grandmother, 58 year old
Anette Ineichen, was found dead in the house.
Officials believe she had been dead for some
period of time.

Police Chief Tony Crisp says the child was brought
to a hospital, where she was treated for dehydration
and lack of food. Crisp says the child has been
released into the care of the Department of
Children's Services.

Police visited the home after the toddler's mum
said she couldn't reach her own mum on the phone
for some days.

Ineichen's daughter, 28 year old Tracy Ineichen, says
her mother had been caring for the child since
she was jailed in September.

Police say Anette Ineichen's cause of death hasn't
yet been determined.
