SPARKS, NV - Sparks police are investigating the death of a two-year-old boy.

Malakai Dean died last Friday night after police were called to a home in Sparks on a report the boy wasn't breathing. Detectives say there were signs of injury on the boy, but results of an autopsy aren't available yet.

Police say Malakai may have been playing at or near Deer Park in Sparks late Friday afternoon, and may have fallen from a slide.

They say he was with a black man in his twenties, but they aren't saying what that man's connection is to the boy.

Malakai is black and was wearing a sweatshirt with artwork from the movie "Cars", and blue jeans.

If you saw him or who he might have been playing with in Deer Park, please call Sparks police or Secret Witness at 322-4900.
