A 28-year-old woman, Mariangelys Ortiz, and 3-month-old baby Abimelec Ortiz Figueroa were found dead inside an apartment in Webster City, last weekend.
Central Iowa officials identified the deceased on Thursday. Officers and paramedics found the pair after responding to an 8:13 a.m. call Sunday to 721 Des Moines St. in Webster City.
Both were staying in an apartment at that address, police say. No one in the Webster City Police Department with authority to speak with the media was available for comment Thursday afternoon, a dispatcher said.
The cause of their death is yet not known.
