A woman was arrested on suspicion of neglect after a boy went into cardiac arrest at Legoland Windsor on Thursday, police said.

The five-month-old boy was taken to hospital in a critical condition following the incident at around 1pm on May 2, Thames Valley Police said.

The force arrested the 27-year-old woman, who is from Witham in Essex, on Friday on suspicion of neglecting a child to cause unnecessary injury.

She has been released on bail until July 26 and detectives say they are not looking for anyone else in connection with Thursday’s events. The child is still in hospital, police added.

Investigating Detective Constable Zoe Eele, from the police’s child abuse investigation unit, said: “We are investigating a distressing incident involving a very young child at Legoland Windsor earlier this week.

“Firstly, our thoughts are with the family of the boy who is in critical condition in hospital after suffering a cardiac arrest. We are supporting them as best we can at this extremely difficult time.

“We are working closely with the Legoland Windsor Resort team, but would like to speak to anyone who may have information about this incident, specifically anyone who was queuing for the Coast Guard HQ boat ride between 11:30 a.m. and 12:45 p.m. .”
