Death Case In LC

Officers in LaGrange County arrest an Iowa man in the death of a 4-year-old boy. Dylan Diericx of Eldridge, Iowa…is accused of neglect…resulting in the death of the child. Detectives say the boy was the son of Diericx’s girlfriend. Diericx apparently engaged in “horse-play” in the cab of a semi when the child was injured. Diericx told investigators that he had tossed the boy on the bunk in the sleeper of his semi, and he hit his head on a fixed object…adding, the boy then began convulsing and went unconscious. The prosecutor’s statement says the boy’s injuries are not consistent with that explanation.
