The father of a 3-month-old girl found unresponsive last month at her South Side home was charged Tuesday with her murder.

Donald Hall, 35, of the 1700 block of East 84th Place, was charged with one count of first-degree murder, police said. He is the father of Aurora Hall.

Aurora, 3 months, was found unresponsive at the home on East 84th Place and pronounced dead at 10:32 p.m. on Oct. 30 at University of Chicago Comer Children’s Hospital, according to the Cook County Medical Examiner’s office.

An Oct. 31 autopsy determined Hall died of a subdural hematoma from blunt head trauma and child abuse, according to the medical examiner’s office, which ruled her death a homicide.

Sources said the girl was choked.

Police responded to Aurora’s home about 3:45 p.m. on Oct. 30 after her mother called 911. The mother told police the child was being fed when she became unresponsive, according to police News Affairs Officer Michael Fitzpatrick.

The Illinois Department of Children and Family Services was investigating, and has had no prior contact with the family, according to department spokesman Kendall Marlowe. There were no other children living in the home.

Hall is scheduled to appear for a bond hearing in Violence Court (Branch 66) later Wednesday.

Calumet Area detectives were investigating.
