Homicide investigators have arrested a Newmarket man in connection with the death of his 2-year-old son.
Officers were called to a home on Longford Dr. in Newmarket on a report of an injured person at 2:22 p.m. Thursday, York Region Police said in a news release. They found a young boy who was not breathing and was later pronounced dead at a hospital.
The cause of death is not being released as police continue their investigation.
On Saturday, police arrested the boy's 29-year-old father. Mario Wint is charged with second-degree murder.
Neighbours described Wint to the Star as a loving, caring father of two young boys. They say he recently got full custody of the 2-year-old and an older son a neighbour believed to be 4.
Nicole Grove, who lives behind Wint's home and has known him for more than a decade, said he was always playing with the children, "buying things, whatever they needed. He was a picture of a dad."
She alluded to problems with the law in the past by both Wint and the child's mother. However, "He's turned his life around. He's a good guy," she said.
"I'm not sure what happened with the child," she added, "but I'm sure that he tried to prevent his death. There's no way that he [killed the child]. He's not that type of person.
"He never had a violent history — nothing like that."
Wint is to appear in the Ontario Court of Justice in Newmarket on Sunday.
