Chief Superintendent Chris Truscott from South Wales Police described what happened as “distressing” and a “shock to the local community”.
“Detectives are working to establish the circumstances of the child’s death and there will be an increased police presence in the area to offer reassurance to local residents,” he added.
“Speculation on social media is unhelpful and will cause distress to those affected by this incident at an already difficult time.”
