Doctors determined the injuries weren’t from a fall, police said, and after questioning Price — the boyfriend of the child’s mother — he allegedly admitted to hitting the boy earlier in the day. The child fell into furniture after the strike, Price said.
He pleaded not guilty to the charges in a Clark County Municipal Court arraignment Wednesday. He is booked in the Clark County Jail on $25,000 bond and has been ordered to have no contact with the child.
The child suffered no permanent injuries, family said.
