Man Accused of Biting 5-Year-Old

A 23-year-old man accused of biting a 5-year-old because he said he wanted to discipline her has waived his preliminary hearing.

Darryl Sherlock of South Kendall Avenue is accused of biting the girl’s leg on March 17 at her home. He’s charged with simple assault and endangering the welfare of a child.

According to papers filed in District Judge Dom Cercone’s office, the girl told police Sherlock bit her and “it hurt.” Sherlock also told the girl’s aunt that he bit the girl because “she needed discipline, the child didn’t listen and the child acts like she runs the house,” the court papers say.

Sherlock is jailed on $5,000 bail.
