Man Accused of Injuring 3-Year-Old-Boy

A 29-year-old New Britain man has been arrested, accused of injuring a 3-year-old boy and sending him to the hospital.

Police said they responded to a New Britain home on Nov. 27 to assist with a medical call for a 3-year-old boy who was not breathing and identified Kutaieba Alsamman, 29, of New Britain, as the person who injured the child.

Police arrested him on Tuesday in connection with the case and charged him with first-degree assault, risk of injury to a child and intimidating a witness. The arrest warrant has been sealed, but police said the victim was known to Alsamman.

The little boy’s current condition is not known.

Alsamman was arraigned on Monday and he is being held on a $750,000 bond. It’s not clear if he has an attorney.
