SPRINGFIELD, Ore. -- A Springfield baby is fighting for his life in a Portland hospital.
Springfield Police Sergeant David Lewis said the two-month-old's father, Dustin Lauener, assaulted him.
Police arrested the father Tuesday.
Lewis said Lauener and the baby's mother took the baby to the hospital last week.
Doctors determined the injuries were consistent with "shaken baby syndrome" and called police.
"The kid has injuries that are life-threatening, potentially life-threatening and quality-of-life threatening, potentially," Lewis said.
If convicted, Lauener faces up to 20 years in prison.
