A Brooklyn toddler is in critical condition after authorities say his mother nearly beat him to death with a bamboo stick.
Police say 27-year-old Yayun Weng brought her 2-year old son to a hospital Thursday, claiming he fell out of bed.
When doctors saw the child’s injuries they immediately called police. Investigators say the boy had bruises over 90-percent of his body.
Weng was charged with assault, endangering the welfare of a child, menacing and criminal possession of a weapon. She was arraigned Saturday.
Information on an attorney for Weng was not immediately available.
