Three-Year-Old Hospitalized After Abuse Allegations | Indianapolis News
Description
A three-year-old girl is in critical condition after severe injuries—including a fractured skull and brain bleeding—prompting emergency hospitalization and sparking a child welfare investigation. The child was picked up by a man who noticed the bruises, while the mother claimed the injuries appeared after being left in the care of Cyrous Baker. Medical scans confirmed the severity, leading to a transfer to a specialized hospital. Authorities also found bruising on a four-year-old sibling and focused on Baker, who gave conflicting accounts: initially suggesting a fall, then claiming he heard nothing. The older child later told investigators Baker had squeezed their neck, allegedly causing the younger child’s injuries. Baker now faces charges of neglect and two counts of domestic battery against a child under fourteen, underscoring the urgent need for child safety and accountability.
