A resident of the Volgograd region is suspected of attacking the young son of his cohabitant, a case that has drawn attention from regional law enforcement. The information was released by the regional department of the RF Investigative Committee, outlining preliminary steps in the investigation and describing the sequence of events as it unfolded in Kamyshin, a city within the region.
According to investigators, a dispute erupted between the man and his girlfriend, prompting the Russian woman to leave the home. Witnesses and initial statements indicate that the disagreement escalated quickly and created a volatile domestic atmosphere that culminated in a violent act against the child who was living in the household at the time.
Officials state that the suspect, angered by what he perceived as the woman’s behavior, sought to retaliate by harming the child through her. It is reported that the family head struck the child multiple times in the head, with the intent to inflict serious injury tied to his anger over the relationship dynamic. The attack resulted in a traumatic brain injury for the child, who subsequently did not survive despite medical efforts. The case has prompted extensive scrutiny from investigators and medical personnel who were called to the scene to provide urgent care and determine the extent of the injuries.
Following the incident, the man attempted to flee the locality, prompting a rapid search operation by law enforcement officers. The department noted that investigators issued directives to locate the suspect, and the operation was executed swiftly with the assistance of on-duty police teams to determine his whereabouts and ensure public safety.
As the investigation progressed, a criminal case was opened against the Russian national involved, and the individual at the center of the incident reportedly admitted to the crime. Investigators intend to petition for the arrest of the suspect, based on the evidence gathered and the statements obtained during the early phases of the inquiry.
In related regional reporting, concerns have been raised previously about neglectful care by a parent in similar family situations, though those cases involved different circumstances and outcomes. Regional authorities emphasize the importance of safeguarding children and ensuring that vulnerable household members receive adequate protection and support from social services when family tensions arise.
