PEORIA, Ill. – Peoria County Coroner Jamie Harwood says a two-month-old boy is Peoria’s 32nd homicide victim this year.
Harwood says young Connor Yeo was pronounced dead late Tuesday night, almost two weeks after first being taken to the hospital.
Police were called November 12th to the 5900 block of North Cypress Drive on a report of an infant not breathing.
Harwood says an autopsy shows Yeo died of severe blunt force head trauma.
Police are still investigating. Zachary Yeo, 23, — the boy’s father — was previously arrested on charges of Aggravated Battery and Aggravated Domestic Battery.
It’s not clear if new charges will be filed.
