Daniel Lee Ryan was taken into custody Monday night as a suspect in death of 14-month-old Hailey Rocha, according to a Montrose Police Department media release.

When officers arrived an EMT was already performing CPR on Hailey, police said. She was taken to Montrose Memorial Hospital where she was later pronounced dead.
An autopsy by the Montrose County Coroner's Office found that Hailey died of "direct result of multiple traumatic injuries" and ruled her death a "homicide."

Ryan is being held at the Montrose County Jail on suspicion of homicide and child abuse resulting in death, police said.
