A woman has been arrested on suspicion of neglect over the death of English football manager Steve Bruce's four-month-old grandson. Madison Smith died after being found unresponsive at his home in Bowdon, Greater Manchester, where he lived with his mother, Bruce's daughter Amy, 37, and father Matt Smith, 35.

But their world was turned upside down when Mr Smith checked on Madison just after 7am on October 18, to find him unresponsive. A woman in her 40s has been arrested on suspicion of neglect and was released on bail ahead of further investigations. Officers are understood to be examining her phone, which suggests she spent time on social media before Madison was found in his bedroom, The Sun first reported.
A Greater Manchester Police spokesman said: 'We can confirm an investigation is ongoing and a woman in her 40s was arrested on suspicion of child neglect. 'She was questioned and released on bail pending further inquiries.'. Steve Bruce's four-month-old grandson was found unresponsive in his room before his tragic death.
Madison was the baby of interior designer Amy, who is Bruce's daughter. A North West Ambulance spokesperson said: 'We attended a private address in Bowdon, on 18th October 2024 following a 999 call at 07:07. 'One patient was taken to hospital. Two ambulances, a response vehicle, and an advanced paramedic attended the incident.'.
