Chauncey Taylor Arrested for Torturing 5-Month-old Son

A Hesperia father is in jail for allegedly torturing his 5-month-old son, who is hospitalized with a broken leg and slashed scrotum.

San Bernardino County sheriff's investigators arrested 27-year-old Chauncey Taylor and booked him for investigation of torture and child abuse. Bail is set at $500,000.

The injured boy was brought to Loma Linda University Medical Center on Friday with a lacerated scrotum. During surgery, they noticed that the cut was smooth and had clean edges.

Sheriff's spokeswoman Arden Wiltshire says the infant also had a broken leg, multiple bruises and possible head trauma, indicating "this has been going on for a few months."
