The brutal father mercilessly punching the child
A man who was caught on camera hitting
a three-year-old boy to the ground inside a
supermarket during a sickening incident
has been released on bail.
Justin Whittington, 23, was arrested on
Friday and charged with child
endangerment after he hit the child –
believed to be his son – in the face so hard
that he fell back on the floor.
He was filmed by CCTV chasing the boy
through the shop on Thursday. When the
toddler stopped and raised his arms,
Whittington lunges forward and appears to
punch him. He then drags him to his feet
by his top and then pushes him away.
Child's mother takes him away
A pregnant woman – believed to be the
child's mother and Whittington's partner
Crystal – takes the hand of the crying boy,
who holds the other to his hurt face, and
walks out of the supermarket while
Whittington heads in the other direction.
Whittington walks away while the boy
cries and holds his face
Whittington, from Bakersfield in
California, was released on bail today after
it had dropped from $1 million to $20,000.
The child was checked over by paramedics
soon after the violent incident and was
deemed not to need hospital attention.
