A four-year-old girl has been found dead in a Brisbane home.
Police established a crime scene at the home in the eastern suburb of Cannon Hill about 9.20am on Monday.
They cordoned off Bent Street as detectives tried to determine the cause of death.
The girl's family is assisting with the investigation, police said on Monday afternoon.
Detectives appealed for anyone with information to contact police.
On Monday morning, local residents posted on social media that about 10 police cars and two ambulances were at the home, which is near Cannon Hill Anglican College.
The school sent an email to parents advising them the street would be closed for the rest of the day and that alternative arrangements for school pick-up were being made.
"This morning an incident occurred in a residence in Bent Street close to CHAC Primary," the email read.
"Should you hear of this incident through the media, please be assured that there is no reason to be fearful of any threat to the school and your children are safe and are being kept totally unaware of the police presence outside the college."
