10/7/2005

A Northwood man was arrested yesterday for injuring an 8-month-old boy in Toledo in what police described as a shaken-baby case.

Derek Harrington, 21, was charged with one count of felony endangering children. He was being held in the Lucas County jail pending arraignment today in Toledo Municipal Court.

Court records indicate he allegedly abused Jacob Zunk on Sept. 27 at 4437 Bellevista Drive. The infant suffered a fractured skull, retinal hemorrhaging, and bleeding in his brain. Police were contacted after the child was taken to Toledo Hospital.
