The child was dead when first responders arrived at the residence in the 2400 block of Newcastle Drive. Police said Blocker, 28, was home alone with Koda and a 22-month-old child.
Detectives aren't releasing many details, but they believe the family's front-loader washing machine played a part in a little boy's death, saying his injuries appears to be consistent with having been inside the appliance.
"From what we know about the washing machine... that door has to be shut, and then someone has to push a button on the outside to get that started," said police spokesman Officer Joe Harn. "It does not start by automatically shutting that door."
