The 7-month old twins (here with their mother) were found dead inside an apartment Wednesday.
Two infant twin girls turned “purple” and died Wednesday morning in a southern New Jersey apartment, according to a report.
The mother of the 7-month-old babies frantically called 911 around 8 a.m. and told a dispatcher her baby twins couldn’t breathe, reports said.
“My twins are purple. They’re not breathing!” the woman can be heard saying on the call, which was obtained by a local media outlet.
The operator told her to try CPR, but her efforts were fruitless and she was unable to revive them, reports said.
Tasia Mayweather, a family friend of the father, said he asked her for a ride to the Lindenwold apartment as the incident was unfolding but they arrived too late, the Courier-Post reported.
Mayweather told the paper he’s “torn up” over the incident: “He was so excited to be a father, and now for this to happen … I can’t imagine,” Mayweather said.
She told the paper she had seen the kids Monday and “everyone seemed fine, healthy, no sickness.”
The Camden County Prosecutor’s Office is handling the investigation and has not released any information pertaining to the twins’ deaths. They confirmed two children under 1 year were found unresponsive and have not returned requests for comment.
