Story out of Kerrville, Texas:
A disabled child’s parents say that their son was intentionally set on fire. Now, one child is in custody facing serious charges.
The open field near Wallace Street in Kerrville is where Tanya Casper says that her nephew was lured, where one boy doused him with gasoline and another set him on fire.
The 10-year-old named Kayden is still in a medically induced coma as of Wednesday night.
“He wore a hearing aid, talked with a lisp… I mean, he was challenged from the get-go.” She said. “And for him to face this new challenge, it’s going to be overwhelming.
The family is calling for the arrest of the boys who, they say, planned the attack.
According to the Kerrville Fire Marshall’s Office, one child was taken into custody and charged with first-degree arson. Fire Chief Dannie Smith did not want to comment on the intent or exactly who was involved.
Kayden's family has created two fundraiser pages to help with medical costs: https://www.youcaring.com/tristyn-hatchett-662011 and https://www.gofundme.com/2sudf44 Cont. (Video/Autoplay)
