-A Neillsville man facing child abuse charges after an infant was hospitalized with serious injuries appeared in Clark County Court on Friday.Back in January, a woman brought her baby into the hospital. The baby had bruises on her body and one of her eyes wasn’t working properly. Authorities questioned Alden Martin Jr. about the injuries. He stated that the baby’s head had pitched forward and slammed into his collarbone while he was holding her. He also said she had fallen off a bed. However, doctors said that would explain the injuries and another child in the home said the baby had been thrown.
Martin has been charged with child abuse. During his preliminary hearing, probable cause was found so his court proceedings will continue. He’ll be back in court next month for arraignment.
