SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO AM) - A Sioux Falls man is charged with felony child abuse after hitting his girlfriend’s one year boy with a belt.
Officer Sam Clemens says the woman yelled at 31-year-old Mark Anthony Craig to stop.
Clemens says as Craig was leaving the room, he allegedly stepped on the child's leg. She took the two kids to a relative's house and called police.
Then she took the injured child to the hospital to get checked out. Clemens says the boy had some marks on his stomach but the injuries were not serious.
Craig was still at the residence when police arrested him.
