A woman was being questioned last night in connection with the attempted murder of a child.
The 39-year-old woman from Bognor was arrested on Thursday after the woman and child were found in the sea off Selsey Bill.
The toddler is now in the care of social services and is said to be doing very well.
Police yesterday renewed their appeal for witnesses who were on the beach at the time of the incident to contact them.
