A MURDER investigation is underway after police found the body of a two-and-a half year old girl.

Police responded to a call from a health care worker and went to Naylor Court in Dewsbury at 2pm yesterday.

A 29-year-old woman was arrested at the scene on suspicion of murder.

A spokesman for West Yorkshire police said "We are not looking for anyone else in connection with the incident.

"A forensic post mortem examination will be carried out today by the Home Office pathologist Prof Peter Vanezis to establish cause of death."
