The Mineral Wells Police Department have arrested a man in connection with the death of an infant. Officers received a medical call saying that an infant was injured after the child had fallen off of a bed. Mineral Wells Fire and EMS units responded to find the infant unresponsive but were able to stabilize the baby. Hospital personnel told investigators that the infant was suffering from head trauma and that the child’s injuries appeared to be inconsistent with a fall. Police arrested and charged Christopher Andrew Cervantez with injury to a child with serious bodily injury. The charges were later updated to capital murder in connection with the death of the infant after the death of the infante.
