A 20-year-old Springtown man is in jail after authorities said he critically injured his girlfriend’s 8-week-old baby on Valentine’s Day.
Kaleb Ray Eisenmann was babysitting the baby and two older children while their mother was at work, according to the Parker County Sheriff’s Office.
At some point, Eisenmann called the baby’s mom and said the baby had a cold and wasn’t breathing right.
“When the mother arrived at the home she found her 8-week-old son lethargic, pale and not acting normally,” the sheriff’s office said.
Sheriff’s investigators said that Eisenmann got frustrated when the baby wouldn’t stop crying. He told investigators that he didn’t slam the baby on the bed, but “put him down really kinda hard.”
The baby suffered head trauma and his injuries were consistent with abuse. He is in critical condition at Cook Children’s Medical Center. Staff at the hospital also found bruises on the woman’s 2-year-old, according to the sheriff’s office.
According to a GoFundMe set up to help the baby’s mother, the baby has severe brain damage and has suffered multiple seizures.
