MARLOW, Okla. - Investigators in Marlow, Okla., say a two-month-old baby suffered 14 broken bones after he was abused by his father.
Doctors say some fractures seem to be healing, while others are fresh.
The father originally told investigators that the baby was hurt on his own after rolling over. He later confessed to authorities that he grabbed the baby by his arm and heard a popping noise, police say.
The father is now in custody and being charged with felony child abuse.
