LEESBURG, Ga. (AP) -- A south Georgia teenager is charged with child cruelty after an online video showed a young man launching a baby several feet across a room.
The video posted on YouTube shows the teenage boy putting a baby on one side of a large, inflatable pillow on the floor.
The boy then jumps on the pillow and the baby flies several feet across the room before landing on the floor and crying.
The 16-year-old Lee County boy was arrested Tuesday after a school teacher saw the video and called the sheriff's office. The boy's name was not released because of his age.
The boy has been charged with a felony count of cruelty to children as well as a misdemeanor count of the same charge.
The video has since been removed from YouTube.
