IDAHO FALLS, Idaho (AP) — An eastern Idaho man faces a charge of felony injury to a child after law enforcement officials say he reportedly shook his 5-month-old son.
Court records show that 20-year-old Dallin Haymore called 911 on Dec. 24 and told paramedics that his son had fallen from a couch. Law enforcement officials were notified after doctors noticed the child had no outward contusions on his head, but did have several recent injuries.
The Post Register (http://bit.ly/2iTjLqy ) reports that Haymore later told investigators he did not shake the baby on Christmas, but he had shaken the child several weeks prior — where he then threw the baby on the ground.
According to law enforcement officials, the child had been hooked up to a feeding apparatus after recently undergoing heart surgery.
