On Saturday, a 4-year-old boy was found deceased with multiple wounds lying in the middle of a street in the Mountain Creek neighborhood of Dallas.
Police described the circumstances of the boy’s death as “unusual” and said that the boy died from violent injuries sustained from an “edged weapon.”
Dallas authorities identified the victim as Cash Gernon, a “happy-go-lucky” boy who had a twin brother, according to his father’s girlfriend.
Authorities on Saturday night arrested a man in connection with the boy’s death, identified as 18-year-old Darriynn Brown. He’s currently facing kidnapping and robbery charges, although authorities said charges will likely be upgraded after the official cause of death is released.

Right now, Brown is being held on a $750,000 bail for each charge, according to the sheriff’s office. According to records, he was charged with evading police in late April, and Dallas police say they’re expecting more charges to be filed.
