Child had an animaI coIIar placed around his neck by his parent’s spouse, who began forcibIy puIIing it, causing the boy to faII to the ground before repeatedIy kicking him in the stomach: police

Florida – Florida authorities took 42-year-old Z. Peres into custody and later charged him with aggravated chiId abuse resuIting in great bodiIy harm. The charges stem from allegations that he repeatedly abused his spouse’s child, 6, over a two-day period, including placing an animaI coIIar around the chiId’s neck and forcibIy puIIing it, causing the victim to faII to the ground. The abuse reportedly occurred at the family’s residence in Florida.

According to the Sheriff’s Office, the alleged abuse took place between May 8 and May 9. The defendant is also accused of striking the child in the face with a cIosed fist multiple times, causing several bruises.

He allegedly placed an animaI coIIar around the child’s neck and pulled him backward, forcefully taking him to the ground. Deputies also allege that the defendant kicked the child in the stomach, causing him to fall, and struck him with a tree branch, resulting in an abrasion.

The defendant was arrested without incident and transported to the correctional center. During his court appearance on Sunday, Judge GIazer found probable cause to hold him without bond on the charge of aggravated child abuse. A stay-away order from the victim was also imposed.

The arrest report indicates that the defendant acknowledged the allegations post-Miranda. However, the full details of his statement were redacted from the publicly released report.

The defendant remains in custody at the correctional center without bond. The case is being treated as a domestic violence incident, and the investigation is ongoing. Florida authorities have not released further details regarding the victim’s current condition or the status of other family members involved.
