According to court documents and a release
issued by the sheriff's office, a 34-year-old
Bonners Ferry man in jail on aggravated battery,
theft and drug charges is suspected of punching
a four year old boy, identified only as "J.C.,"
twice in the stomach, causing the child's
pancreas to explode.
A $25,000 arrest warrant was issued for Kyle
Fuller, 34, on October 19 on a charge off
aggravated battery, alleging that sometime
between September 22 and 24, within Boundary
County, he hit the boy twice, causing injuries
so severe the child had to be transported to
Sacred Heart Medical Center, Spokane, for
emergency surgery.
Fuller was also charged with felony theft after
he pawned a motorcycle at Woody's Pawn & Gun,
Bonners Ferry, on October 14. Pawn owner Kyle
Watts asked the sheriff's office to run a VIN
inspection on the 1985 Honda 100R dirt bike on
October 18, and it returned as stolen out of
Ponderay, Idaho.
The motorcycle was handed over to Ponderay
police to be returned to its rightful owner, and
deputies and Bonners Ferry Police officers
returned to Woody's the next day, October 19,
when Fuller was reported to have returned to the
shop to pawn some DVDs.
When asked if he'd pawned the motorcycle, Fuller
allegedly told deputies he hadn't, but he
recanted a short time later and was placed under
arrest for possession of stolen property. Fuller
was frisked by police, who allegedly found a
quantity of methamphetamines, which, Fuller
said, wasn't his, as he'd merely found it on the
sidewalk on his way to the pawn shop.
Fuller was booked into Boundary County Jail on
the three felony charges, where he is being held
on $125,000 bond. A preliminary hearing has been
set before Judge Justin Julian at 1:30 p.m.
