A 32-year-old mother was arrested by Westminster police Friday, Nov. 24 on suspicion of killing her 9-year-old daughter, whose body was found inside a home, authorities said.
Police were called to the 14100 block of Goldenwest Street just past noon after a concerned family member asked officers to do a welfare check at the home, Sgt. Eddie Esqueda said.
The girl was found dead inside with obvious signs of trauma, Esqueda said. No one else was inside the home.
