Lane County prosecutors allege Louis F. Pocza, 21, intentionally killed 1-year-old Gabriel Kasper on Feb. 7 during an unspecified serious form of assault. Springfield police said Friday that officers arrested Pocza on suspicion of first-degree manslaughter, which alleges he unintentionally killed the boy in a reckless act.
Police responded to an apartment complex on Feb. 7 after someone reported Kasper was unresponsive. He was taken to a hospital in the area, where he died. Pocza and Kasper’s mother were interviewed by officers the same day and no arrests were made at the time.
Pocza was responsible for watching Kasper when he died, police said. Police haven’t said what led to Kasper’s death.
