(CNN) A Kentucky mother has been arrested after her 2-year-old son ingested fentanyl, according to a news release from the Ludlow Police. The mother, Lauren Baker, faces charges of murder, importing fentanyl and trafficking in a controlled substance, the release says. She returned to Ludlow, the complaint says, where she gave two people some of the drug. On Thursday, March 18, Baker told police she "took of a shot" of fentanyl, the complaint says, and took a nap. When she woke up, the 2-year-old was not breathing and the contents of her purse, including the fentanyl, were scattered about, the complaint says.
