ACWORTH, Ga. - A young Acworth mother is in custody after deputies say injured her baby son so severely that he had to be put into a coma.
Cherokee County Sheriff's Deputies say they responded to an "unresponsive call" on Acworth's Hunter Drive on Saturday.
After arriving at the scene, deputies say they found the 1-year-old boy with injuries to his face and body and unable to respond to stimuli. The child was rushed to Scottish Rite, where officials say he was put in a medically-induced coma because of a brain injury.
