EDWARDSVILLE - Madison County Coroner Stephen P. Nonn is reporting that an investigation continues into yesterday’s (Aug. 18, 2015) death of an infant in Alton.

The decedent was Aiden R. Hubbard, a 2-month-old of Alton.

Aiden was discovered unresponsive by his mother, Russena Hubbard, at their home in the 3200 block of Oakwood in Alton.  She alerted authorities at 11:28 a.m. (August 18) who responded to the home to find the child without signs of life.  The baby was pronounced dead at the scene at 12:08 p.m. by Madison County Coroner’s Investigator Kelsey Wofford.
