LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — Las Vegas Metro police are investigating the death of a child who was found deceased in a freezer.
The child was found in the freezer in a garage at a home on the 4300 block of Saddle Brook Park Drive.
The suspect is identified as Brandon Toseland, 35, of Las Vegas.
Police said on Tuesday morning, an elementary-aged child handed a note to a CCSD teacher that stated her mother was being held against her will & did not know the location of her preschool-aged child. The teacher passed the note on to CCSD police who in turn called Metro police.
Police then set up a surveillance operation near the home. Around 10 a.m. Tuesday, police saw a man, later identified as Toseland & a woman leave the home & pulled them over.
After questioning, the woman told police she had not seen her preschool-aged child since Dec. 11. Police say she also said her boyfriend, Toseland, did not allow her to go into certain areas of the home.
Police obtained a search warrant for the home & Tuesday afternoon found the remains of the child. Police believe the child had been in the freezer since early December.
Toseland was initially detained on 2 kidnapping charges & will now also face an open murder charge.
The elementary-aged child has been placed with family.
