Tributes paid after 'beautiful' teen girl found dead in flat as teen boy arrested
Casey-Louise was rushed to hospital when she was found in a flat by emergency services. Heartbroken tributes have been paid to a 13-year-old girl who died after being found unresponsive in a flat in Huddersfield. Casey-Louise, who was living in the care system in Liverpool, had travelled to West Yorkshire last Monday before tragedy struck. Emergency services rushed her to hospital but she could not be saved and was pronounced dead in the early hours. Her devastated sister posted a tribute on TikTok, writing: 'I love you forever my princess, forever 13.' Other relatives described her death as 'sudden and totally unexpected', adding: 'Our beautiful Casey-Louise gained her angel wings. Our family is absolutely devastated. Please respect our privacy and give us time to grieve.' A post-mortem has been carried out but could not determine a cause of death, which police have described as 'unexplained pending further investigation'. Detectives have launched an investigation and a 16-year-old boy was arrested on suspicion of murder. He was later bailed. The teenager was also arrested over an alleged rape of a 16-year-old girl in what police say is a separate incident in Kirklees, reports the Mirror. West Yorkshire Police's Homicide and Major Enquiry Team is leading the investigation, which officers say will be 'complex' and 'lengthy'. A police spokesperson said: 'Detectives are working to fully understand the circumstances of the girl's death which is being treated as unexplained after a post-mortem could not establish how she died.'
