ST. CLAIR SHORES: 3-year-old's death called homicide

A 3-year-old boy died April 23 of blunt head injuries in what Medical Examiner Dr. Daniel Spitz said was a homicide, but it was not revealed in testimony Tuesday what caused the injuries to Kyle Rogers of Roseville.

A preliminary examination for Victor Weber, 30, of St. Clair Shores, who is charged with felony murder and first-degree child abuse, is to continue Aug. 4 so his attorney can review a police interview with Weber's wife, Sarah Weber, who testified Tuesday.

Sarah Weber, who was the boy's babysitter, called 911 from the couple's home in the 29000 block of Beste to report Kyle had passed out and had fallen. Kyle was taken to St. John Hospital in Detroit, where he died a day later.
