Police said Fowler called 911 on June 15, but made no mention of her 1-year-old daughter, Skylar. Police thought they were responding to a medical emergency involving Fowler, but when they arrived at her white Hyundai Sonata, they found the child unresponsive in the backseat. She was pronounced dead at the scene. Fowler was treated and released from Emory Hospital.
