WILKES-BARRE, Pa. — A Wilkes-Barre man faces charges after an investigation found his four-week-old baby had several skull fractures and brain bleeds.
Police are searching for Andrew Carter.
According to court papers, the baby was taken by his mother to the hospital for a fever last year.
Doctors found injuries consistent with trauma, not from an accident.
A search warrant found Carter searching "babies being punched in the head or hit in the head" on his phone but denied he did that to the child.
Doctors say the baby's brain injuries are devastating, and the prognosis was grim.
Andrew Carter faces aggravated assault and other related charges in Luzerne County.
