A 20-year-old mother is in jail and her 1-year-old child is in critical condition at Children’s Hospital after police responded to what they believe is a case of child abuse.

A resident of Kentucky Street on Detroit’s west side said they saw and heard the commotion Friday.

“I heard the fire truck and I saw EMS, then I saw a lady run out,” a witness said.

Detroit police said they responded to a home on Kentucky Street for a medical emergency call, but further investigation revealed it was a suspected child abuse incident.

Police handcuffed the child’s mother.

“I looked out the window, I saw the lady come out with the police. They patted her down and then they turned her around, put handcuffs on her and put her in the car,” another witness said.

Police have not released the identity of the mother.

A Detroit mother has been charged with murder in the death of her 1-year-old son last week.

According to Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy, 20-year-old Rhionna Nichols is charged with felony murder and first degree child abuse and torture.

Police say they were called to the home on Kentucky St. around 5 p.m. on Thursday, Dec. 5 on a report of a medical emergency. Further investigation revealed what they believed to be a child abuse incident.

The 20-month-old child was taken to a hospital but later died from his injuries.

Nichols was arraigned Monday and a magistrate denied bond for the mother accused of killing her baby in a fit of rage over a television.

Nichols was reportedly upset because little Viston accidentally pulled a TV off a dresser. Sources say Nichols claimed she shook her baby and used a shoe to hit him on the legs, but police say reality had to be much worse because Viston died from trauma to his dead.
