An infant estimated to be four weeks old or younger was found deceased in a restroom at the Electric Forest music festival in Rothbury, Michigan. The body was discovered by a cleaning staff member in the camping area of the four-day electronic music event, which draws around 50,000 attendees annually to rural Michigan. The local police have launched an investigation into the incident but stated there is no known threat to the public at this time. Authorities have asked anyone with relevant information to come forward to assist with the inquiry.

Festival organizers expressed deep sorrow over the tragic event in a public statement, saying, "The Forest family is heartbroken to share this difficult news. Michigan police continue to investigate, and if you can help in any way, please do. Our festival team is devastated, and we know our festival family feels the same." Electric Forest has been held since 2011 and features numerous DJs and bands primarily within the EDM and jam band genres, hosted at a local resort northwest of Grand Rapids, Michigan.
