Foster home closed after child dies

ATLANTA - A DeKalb County foster home where an 11-month-old child choked to death on a hotdog has been closed down. <br> <br> George Walker the Third was placed in the home after the Department of Family and Children Services determined his biological mother could not take care of him. <br> <br> The death was ruled accidental, but the foster mother, Bobbie Ward, was not at home at the time of the death. Her 19-year-old daughter was watching the child. <br> <br> Wilfred Hamm of the Department of Family and Children&#39;s Services says the department has closed the foster home permanently. Three children were removed from the home, officials announced earlier this week. <br> <br> The child&#39;s biological grand-mother has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the state.
