BEMIDJI — The foster care license for a Bemidji couple has been revoked following the death of an infant.

A report from the Minnesota Department of Human Services says the foster parents violated protocol to prevent Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. The baby died last July after being placed on a folded sleeping bag with blankets on top.

The department’s report says the baby had also slept in a bouncy seat and car seat. The foster parents told investigators the child would not fall asleep in a crib.

The license revocation can be appealed.
