A father was charged with murder in the death of his 2-month-old daughter last year in Turner, officials said.

Trevor Averill, 27, was arrested on Wednesday after a grand jury indicted him on charges of depraved indifference murder and manslaughter, police said.

The investigation began in July 2020 after Androscoggin County sheriff’s deputies were called to a home in Turner for a report of an infant in medical distress, police said. The baby, Harper Averill, was taken to Maine Medical Center where she died from her injuries.

Averill, who now resides in Buckfield, was being held on $50,000 bail Thursday at the Androscoggin County Jail, officials said. It was unclear whether he had an attorney.
