UPDATE: Bradford baby killed in September died from trauma to neck and head

BRADFORD — The 1-year-old girl who was killed in September from suspected abuse died from trauma to her neck and head, Montgomery County Coroner Dr. Kent Harshbarger said.

Caelyn Colon died at Dayton Children’s Hospital in September after a man called 911 to say she wasn’t breathing at a Bradford home on East Vine Street. Her death was ruled a homicide, Harshbarger said.

“She was just fine,” the male 911 caller said. “Nothing happened. We were just…she has a lot of issues.”

Joshua Mize, 30, was arrested the day after Colon’s death around 9:30 a.m. by the Clark County Sheriff’s Office after a brief manhunt, Miami County Sheriff Dave Duchak said.

Mize was indicted in September on two counts of murder and single counts of felonious assault and child endangering. His bond was set at $1 million.

A second caller to 911 was Colon’s mother.

“My daughter isn’t breathing,” a woman told 911 dispatchers. “My boyfriend just called me.”

The woman, who was driving to the East Vine Street address, said her boyfriend called her and told her that her daughter wasn’t breathing and then hung up on her.

Mize previously served prison time for drug trafficking in Clark County and was on parole at the time of his arrest, according to the sheriff’s office.

Mize is still in jail and his trial is scheduled for January.
