KISSIMMEE (AP) – Authorities say a Polk County man fatally injured an infant boy over the weekend.

Osecola deputies and paramedics responded to a Kissimmee mobile home on Friday and found an unresponsive infant. Officials say 4-month-old Jeremiah Shaneyfelt died at the hospital Saturday from his injuries. Deputies arrested 27-year-old Michael Joseph Reid Jr. on Monday.

Reid was out on bond from a previous child abuse charge involving a 6-month-old victim.
