A Maryland man was arrested, accused of beating his girlfriend's son for eating birthday cake without permission, according to police.
Hagerstown police say this past Tuesday, the juvenile victim was handcuffed and severely beaten by Wilson, who is dating the boy's mother. The boy reportedly had numerous bruises, contusions and abrasions to different parts of his body.
Through an investigation, police say they determined that the reason for the assault was that the boy didn't have permission to eat birthday cake.
Another adult, who was in the apartment at the time of the alleged assault called 911. However, when paramedics arrived the first time, police say the child's mother came out and told them that the child was merely congested and medical attention wasn't needed.
However 4 hours later, paramedics were called again, this time because the child was not breathing.
The child was taken to the hospital in critical condition.
Robert Leroy Wilson is charged with first- and second-degree assault, child abuse and reckless endangerment.
Wilson is currently being held at the Washington County Detention Center on a $600,000.00 bond.
