The child, whose name was not released, was taken to the Dyersburg hospital Thursday where he was pronounced dead.
Reports say the mother of both the 10-month old and a 24-month-old girl left both children alone while they were in a bath tub taking a bath. When the mother returned, she says she found the 10-month-old face down in the tub.
A preliminary investigation shows the death was accidental, but the Sheriff's Department has ordered an autopsy on the child and child protective services is now involved.
