A family
is in shock after a SWAT team threw a stun grenade into their 19-month-old son's crib during a midnight drugs raid, leaving the baby
in a medically induced coma with severe burns.
Wisconsin
mother Alecia Phonesavanh, her husband, Bounkham, and their children
including toddler, Bou Jr., were visiting her sister-in-law in Atlanta,
Georgia, when police raided the home early Wednesday.
Phonesavanh said officers threw a stun grenade, which landed in the sleeping child's crib.
Deputies
said they bought drugs from the house and came back with a no-knock
warrant to arrest a man known to have drugs and weapons, WSB reported.
They arrested Wanis Thometheva, 30, during the raid.
Darby told WSBTV that the entire police unit is upset over the incident, which was an accident.
Bou Sr., a musician, wrote of his grief on his Facebook page Thursday morning.
'My
friends my heart my mind my soul is fill with sadness right now my son
is not doing too good l will need few days to get myself together l will
get back and share music with you when we are all feels better keep
rocking friends.'
Friends of the Phonesavanh family have set up a fund to help pay for medical expenses for the little boy
