February 26, 2011 12:04 EST
CLEVELAND (AP) -- Some employees at a child welfare agency in Cleveland say they didn't find out a social worker had been assaulted at work until days later, when she was found dead at home.
Tashia Burch-York was assaulted by a 15-year-old boy on Feb. 17 at the Cleveland building where she worked for Cuyahoga County. Authorities have been investigating whether the attack led to her death.
The Plain Dealer in Cleveland reports some workers at the agency are concerned that they were not notified about the assault.
A spokesman for county Executive Ed FitzGerald says the decision was made by agency Director Deborah Forkas, who's being fired.
The newspaper reports the 15-year-old boy has been charged with the juvenile equivalent of felony assault and placed in juvenile detention.
