RIVER OAKS (1080 KRLD) - We're learning new information into the death of a River Oaks girl.

Isabella Courtney, 6, died at her home on Melba Ct. Wednesday evening.

The Tarrant County District Attorney's Office says the suspect is Isabella's 12-year-old cousin.

He's been ordered to remain in juvenile detention.

Due to the age of the suspect, hardly any details are being released.

Even though River Oaks Police have charged him with murder, a family friend who started a GoFundMe campaign calls the incident an "accident."

The Tarrant County Medical Examiner's Office has not yet released an official cause of death.
