Baby dropped headfirst on concrete during fight

WASHINGTON, Pa. — A 3-month-old baby is out of the hospital and recovering at home after he was dropped on his head on concrete Saturday.

Police say the boy’s mother was involved in a fight with multiple women at Lincoln Terrace in Washington while he was in her arms.

The baby, named Kashis, suffered a skull fracture.

"The mother was holding the baby the whole time, I wanted to hold the baby when she was trying to break up the fight," said Dontre Palmer. "Next minute I know the baby dropped and I heard the crack."

Washington police took multiple witness statements that said, "The 16 year old mom was struck in the head and was defending herself. She had the baby in her arms the entire time. She was attempting to break up the fight when the baby slipped from her arms, striking his head on the road."

The baby's grandmother wants charges filed against the two women who she says attacked her daughter.

"My grandson had been pushed out of her arms, being struck by a 60 and 34-year-old woman," said Tiffany Heasley.

Heasley said the baby's head hitting the ground at first wasn't enough to stop the fight.

He was rushed to Washington Hospital, then flown to Children's Hospital.

Investigators are looking into who should be charged in the case and said charges are pending.
