Cops: Dad Put Beer in Child's Sippy Cup
A Somerset father accused of repeatedly abusing and tormenting his 2-year-old son is headed to court on 34 charges. At least a dozen witnesses waited for 50 minutes before 27-year-old Jason Flick waived his preliminary hearing Thursday before District Judge Arthur Cook in Somerset. Somerset Borough Police have charged Flick with 13 counts of felony child endangerment, a felony aggravated assault charge and 10 misdemeanor charges. The counts stem from a slew of disturbing allegations, which include wrapping a snake around the boy’s neck, pouring hot sauce down his throat, writing obscene words and images on him, hitting him on the back of the head with a toy gun and leaving him alone or confined to his room for hours on end. He also is accused of filling the boy’s sippy cup with beer.
