Toddler who died covered with human bite marks, parents arrested

Milwaukee, Wis., police say the three-year-old boy who suffered numerous physical injuries at a home near 54th and Euclid has died. The child has been identified as Aiden Archer.

A law enforcement source close to the investigation tells FOX6 News the boy’s body was found to be covered with human bite marks. It appears the boy also had head trauma. A cause of death has not yet been determined.

The child’s mother, a 24-year-old woman, and the mother’s boyfriend, a 27-year-old man, are currently in custody. MPD will present charges to the Milwaukee County District Attorney’s Office in the coming days.

Neighbors say the 24-year-old mother and her 27-year-old boyfriend moved in not too long ago. Neighbors say they knew the woman who rented out the home as Jackie and her adult son Josh. It is believed they took in the young mother, her three-year-old child and her boyfriend. Josh was the one who ran to Seiben’s house to call 911.

“We’re angry. We’re not having it. We don’t want this in our neighborhood. I hope I never have to live through this again. It’s sad. It’s wrong. I hope whoever is responsible is brought to justice,” a neighbor said.

An autopsy on the little boy is set for Thursday or Friday.
