A five-week-old baby is said to have sustained multiple injuries.
Members of the Special Investigation Section have laid charges against the child’s father as a result of a police investigation. He appeared in Dartmouth Provincial Court Thursday to face charges of aggravated assault and criminal negligence causing bodily harm.
The man’s name cannot be released due to a publication ban on any information that would reveal the child’s identity.
