An infant suffered multiple injuries allegedly at the hands of the child's mother. Moore Police officers arrested Heath Stone after the Department of Human Services reported the injured child to investigators.

"She was coming off of a binge on Meth," said Jeremy Lewis with the Moore Police Department. "The child wouldn't stop crying and she basically caused the injuries by striking him trying to get him to stop crying."

Police arrested the 8-month-old's mother, Heather Stone, at her apartment in Moore. The arrest warrant shows Stone "confessed to slamming the infant" into his car seat when he refused to stop crying. The infant suffered multiple injuries including a "skull fracture" and a "displaced right femur fracture."

"The femur is the strongest bone in your leg and to also have a skull fracture, that's a pretty strong bone too so it's a very sad situation to see injuries like that to a totally helpless baby," said Lewis.

The arrest warrant showed Stone was "under the influence of methamphetamine" and police say that most likely played a big part.

"Abuse in general, connected with coming off meth, I mean the person is not in their right mind," explained Lewis. "They do things they normally wouldn't do."

Heather Stone was arrested and charged with child abuse from injury. A judge set her bond at $25,000 dollars. The child was placed in protective custody.
