A three-week-old Hispanic infant named Aniya Carroll-Flores died after being brought to a Phoenix hospital with a severe head injury. The Department of Child Safety received the report on September 21, 2017; Aniya died two days later on September 23, 2017. Her death was later determined to be the result of abuse or neglect.

A joint investigation by the Phoenix Police Department and the Department of Child Safety identified Aniya’s father, 21-year-old Allen Carroll, as the alleged perpetrator. Concerns about abuse and substance abuse were noted, and Aniya’s sibling was placed with relatives while authorities investigated. The Department of Child Safety later terminated Allen Carroll’s parental rights, finalized March 1, 2019.

If anyone has information about Aniya, her family, or events in Phoenix in September 2017 that could help clarify what happened, please share details with the appropriate authorities.
