FALLS CHURCH, Va. — Fairfax County police say they incorrectly announced that a Vienna man had been charged with murder in the death of his 2-month-old daughter.

Police said Wednesday that 21-year-old Francis Reed has been charged with child abuse.
Authorities were called Saturday to a residence on Parkwood Court in Falls Church, where paramedics were trying to revive the girl with CPR. Police say she was taken to a hospital where she died on Monday.

Officer Don Gotthardt says the investigation is complicated and that there was “slight miscommunication in the vetting process for the release” on the charges. Gotthardt says Reed has never been charged with murder
