The death of 2-month-old Bryson Lee Micah Holman in the Southwest Side Ashburn neighborhood has been ruled a homicide, and state child welfare authorities are investigating the infant’s father.
Officers responded to a call of an unresponsive baby at Bryson’s home in the 3200 block of West 83rd Place at noon Saturday, according to Chicago Police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office. He was pronounced dead there at 12:05 p.m.
An autopsy Sunday found Bryson died of multiple injuries from abuse and ruled his death a homicide, according to the medical examiner’s office.
An abuse investigation is pending against the boy’s father, Department of Children and Family Services spokeswoman Veronica Resa said Sunday night. DCFS has not had prior contact with Bryson’s family, and the baby’s three siblings do not live with his father, Resa said.
No one was in custody as of early Monday.
