TEMPERANCE - A Monroe County Sheriff's Department spokesman confirmed yesterday the identity of the 2-month-old who died in his Jackman Road home Friday.

Talon Boyd, who was a twin, wasn't breathing when his parents called 911 shortly after 11 a.m. The father, Joshua Boyd, told emergency dispatchers he accidentally rolled over onto his son while the two were sleeping together.

The infant was pronounced dead at noon Friday in Toledo Hospital. The sheriff's department continued its investigation of the incident this weekend.

Mr. Boyd is in a local blues band called Josh Boyd and the VIP Band.
