DeKalb man charged with injuring child

SYCAMORE – A DeKalb teenager has been charged with two counts of aggravated battery of a child under the age of 7.

Jason A. Kidd, 18, of the 1400 block of Lewis Street, is being held on $100,000 bond after the Department of Children and Family Services contacted DeKalb Police about a suspicious injury to Kidd's child. By Tuesday afternoon, he had not posted the $10,000 required to for release while the case was pending.

DeKalb police lieutenant Jason Leverton said Kidd and the mother brought their child to the hospital for medical attention after an incident early Friday morning in which Kidd "moved the child in such a way to cause injury."
