ND Man Accused of Seriously Injuring Infant

A Fort Yates area man was arrested for several serious injuries to his infant daughter.

Waylon Pumpkinseed is charged with child abuse and assault resulting in serious bodily injury.

An FBI affidavit says the four-month-old girl weighed approximately seven pounds when she was hospitalized Sunday.

X-rays revealed multiple healed and unhealed rib fractures and a skull fracture.

Pumpkinseed told investigators he squeezed and dropped the baby and shook her for 30-45 seconds.
