A 7-month-old boy died after multiple severe injuries Thursday and the incident is being investigated as a homicide, according to the Winston-Salem Police Department.

Dorn said the investigation is still early and no charges have been filed as of Saturday afternoon.

Discussions with the medical examiner’s office and the district attorney’s office next week will determine any possible charges, Dorn said.

Six adults, who are all family members of the baby, were at the apartment during the incident, said Lt. Gregory Dorn with the criminal investigations division.

Police were called on a report that the infant wasn’t breathing, police said. When officers arrived, the infant’s family was performing cardio-pulmonary resuscitation on the baby.

Officers and medical personnel assisted with life-saving measures, but the baby, whose name was not disclosed, later died at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center.

An autopsy conducted Friday determined that the infant sustained injuries that caused the infant’s death, and the medical examiner ruled the baby’s death as a homicide, police said.

“The infant had several severe injuries,” Dorn said. “We’re conducting interviews with family members to establish a timeline of events.”

"A 7-month-old boy died from blunt force injuries to his abdomen and chest, according to an autopsy. The boy’s father, Christion Vaughn Jones, 19, has been charged with murder and felony intentional child abuse, causing serious bodily injury, in connection to the July 4, 2019 death of his son, Christion Vaughn Jones Jr.

Christion Jones Sr., who has addresses on Franciscan Drive in Winston-Salem and Merritt Drive in Greensboro, is in the Forsyth County Jail with no bond allowed.

According to an arrest warrant, the infant had a torn liver, a tear in a vein carrying blood to his heart, broken ribs, a torn small intestine, a torn pancreas, torn adrenal glands and other internal injuries.

The autopsy report also said Christion Jones Jr. had bruises on his scalp, face and lower back.

On July 4, 2019, the infant woke up crying after falling asleep in his parent’s bedroom, according to a summary of findings contained in the autopsy report. The report says his father took the baby downstairs and gave him a bottle of formula. The medical examiner’s investigative report said Jones gave the bottle to his son and then placed the child on his back in a chair. The bottle dropped, and the child was found unresponsive, according to the autopsy and investigative reports.

The boy’s grandmother began performing CPR. Christion Jones Jr.’s stomach became distended, according to the investigative report. Emergency medical personnel and firefighters took over in trying to save the infant, who was taken to Brenner’s Children Hospital. He was declared dead at 11:03 a.m. on July 4, 2019, according to the autopsy report.

Winston-Salem police officers had been called to the residence, which was in the 1900 block of Franciscan Drive at the Twin City apartment complex off Peters Creek Parkway, at 10:09 a.m. that morning. Winston-Salem police said last year that six adults, all relatives of the infant, were in the house. No other children were home at the time."
