A 2-month-old baby is being treated for broken and fractured bones at an area hospital after the boy's father was arrested on felony charges of child abuse.
The infant was taken to the hospital Saturday night and during the examination, doctors found the child was suffering from a broken femur, two skull fractures and an old wrist fracture. Doctors classified the injuries as child abuse.
Investigators arrived and interviewed both parents, who denied any knowledge of the injuries. While interrogating Christopher Thompson Case, the 20-year-old father of the baby, it was determined he was the primary care giver during the critical times in which the child most likely suffered the injuries.
Case was arrested Monday afternoon on three felony charges of child abuse. He was booked into Midwest City Police Department jail where he posted a $30,000.00 bond.
Police said the investigation is on-going. Investigators are trying to determine if anyone had knowledge of the abuse and allowed it to occur.
The 2-month-old is recovering in the hospital and a DHS hearing is expected this week to determine who will take custody.
"These cases are always difficult, especially with a child of this age who is completely defenseless." Midwest City Police Chief Brandon Clabes said in a press release.
