A Cobb County man remained in jail Monday night, more than two weeks after allegedly shaking and throwing a crying infant left in his care, according to police.
Ryne Dale Garoy, 30, of a Marietta address, faces a first-degree cruelty to children charge for seriously injuring the baby, according to his arrest warrant, obtained by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Garoy turned himself in Nov. 19 and has since remained in the Cobb County jail, where he is being held without bond, booking records show.
Garoy was babysitting the baby between 10 p.m. and 11 p.m. on Nov. 10 when the alleged abuse occurred, police said.
“Said accused took the baby into the living room where he aggressively shook the victim to have the victim stop crying,” the warrant states. “Said accused then took the victim into a bedroom and threw the victim down to the floor.”
The baby, whose name was not released, remains hospitalized with serious injuries, including a skull fracture, according to police.
