CHARLOTTE — A woman in Charlotte is facing a murder charge after police say her 9-month-old daughter died from a fentanyl overdose this summer.
According to the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Departmnet, officers got a call on July 7 for an unresponsive infant at an apartment complex on Orchard Trace Lane. The girl was taken to the hospital, but she was pronounced deceased.
Channel 9 obtained an affidavit that says the baby’s mother, Hallie Ingram, told detectives that she gave the girl a bottle and put her in a pack and play around 9 a.m. and the girl was acting normal. Ingram said she took a nap for about an hour, and when she woke up, she found the girl unresponsive.
