Sources told CBS 2's Brad Edwards that police have surveillance video showing the boy's aunt pushing him into the water.
Police have said a person of interest is now being questioned by detectives, after the child went into the water along the north end of Navy Pier around 1 p.m.
As CBS 2's Jermont Terry reported, the little boy remained in very critical condition at Lurie Monday night. Police said the little boy is still in critical condition Tuesday morning. Meanwhile late Monday night, you could still find police lights flickering in the dark along the northeastern section of Navy Pier, where investigators continue to focus their attention.
Police originally said the preliminary investigation showed the boy's fall was accidental. But after asking questions and talking to those at or near the pier, they are now saying it is unclear how the child ended up in the water – and they are not ready to call it an accident just yet. It's also unknown if the boy hit his head on anything when he fell over, or how long he was underwater before divers pulled him out.
