Investigation Ongoing Into Death Of 10-Week-Old Romulus Boy

ROMULUS (WWJ) - Any possible charges are still pending in connection with the death of a 10-week old Romulus boy who was taken to a local hospital with critical injuries.

The Wayne County Prosecutor's office received a request for a warrant late Friday morning, but told police further investigation will be required before a charging decision can be made.

According to reports, the baby died a shot time after he arrived at the hospital with a fractured skull, broken ribs and bruises.

Doctors told investigators said they believe the father's story about how the boy was hurt doesn't match up with the boy's injuries. They also said the baby had some older injuries that had healed.

Other circumstances were not immediately clear, including where the mother was at the time.

No names have been released. As of Friday afternoon, the investigation was ongoing.
