Wisconsin law enforcement responded to the frantic call of a mother reporting her 8-month-old child suffered serious injuries. Upon the investigation, they received several different versions of the story of what really happened to the child until they came to their final conclusion. It will piss you off.

On Nov. 5, a Milwaukee woman called 911 to report she came home noticing her child appeared seriously unwell. She told officers one of her son’s arms was twitching, his hands were turning different colors and one of his eyes was swollen shut, per CBS 58.

Paramedics rushed the infant to Children’s Wisconsin Hospital where doctors discovered the baby suffered a large skull fracture and brain injury.

Police interrogated the baby’s father, 20-year-old Jalin White, given he was home with the child when he was found. Though, they were given different versions of what happened. According to the criminal complaint, per WISN, White told officers the mother bumped her baby’s head on the door frame. Then, White claimed the baby fell during a diaper change. Then, he claimed he dropped the child while playing video games.

Finally, investigators got the story prosecutors ultimately ran with.

Read what White said via WISN:

“The Defendant was down 2 points in the fourth quarter of the game and became frustrated while holding JW, ultimately throwing JW against the wall,” the complaint states.

“…the Defendant said, ‘my son hit his head on the wall. He hit his head hard on the wall, bro. I swear he hit his head hard on the wall’ and ‘I heard the wall, it was hard on his head. It was hard. It was a loud hard wall,” and “I heard the impact of the wall after I tossed him.’” the complaint states.

Doctors are doubtful the baby will survive his injuries. They also suspect the child may have been abused prior to the incident after discovering six rib fractures in different stages of healing and a healing clavicle fracture, the report says.

White was charged with felony child abuse and neglecting a child. If his child passes, prosecutors say his charges may increase to homicide.

The Walgreens location at 2826 N. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Drive in Milwaukee will close, the retail and pharmacy giant said Tuesday.

It’s unclear when this location will shut for good. Walgreens abruptly closed a south side location last month, citing “several incidents of criminal activity” at the store.

This is the third location in Milwaukee that will close since Walgreens announced that it would be closing about 1,200 stores by 2027 and 500 by the end of next year nationwide.

Walgreens on South Layton Boulevard and West National Avenue on the south side was supposed to close by mid-November but abruptly closed early on Oct. 18, while it was announced Monday that the Walgreens at North 91st Street and West Appleton Avenue also will close.

The company said Tuesday, “We have no further announcements” when asked about any other closures.

The alderman for the Appleton Avenue location said he expected that store to close by Dec. 3. He urged constituents to find alternate pharmacy locations.

Ald. Milele Coggs represents the area surrounding the King Drive location. She didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.

Walgreens said in a statement: “Our retail pharmacy business is central to our go-forward business strategy. However, increased regulatory and reimbursement pressures are weighing on our ability to cover the costs associated with rent, staffing, and supply needs.

“It is never an easy decision to close a store. We know that our stores are important to the communities that we serve, and therefore do everything possible to improve the store performance. When closures are necessary, like these two in Milwaukee, we will work in partnership with community stakeholders to minimize customer disruptions. We intend to redeploy the majority of our team members from those stores that we close.”
