A man has been arrested by Atlanta police for the tragic death of a six-year-old boy. The incident unfolded when officers responded to a report of an unresponsive child at an Atlanta Fire Department station on Lee Street around 11:17 p.m. on Wednesday.
The child, identified as Tobias Perkins Jr., was rushed to the hospital after being taken to the fire station for medical attention. Sadly, he was pronounced dead upon arrival at the hospital. The investigation led authorities to charge 24-year-old Dashon Jones with murder and child cruelty for his role in the boy’s death. Jones was already in the Fulton County Jail on unrelated charges at the time of his arrest.
Cedric Perkins, the child’s cousin, expressed deep sorrow over the tragedy and raised concerns about the delay in attempting to save the boy. According to Perkins, Jones was the boyfriend of the mother, and Tobias lived with his mother and sisters at an apartment complex on Peeples Street SW.
The family is grappling with the sudden and devastating loss and is seeking answers about the events leading to the boy’s death. They are organizing a vigil on Wednesday, March 27, and are in need of assistance with funeral expenses. Gofundme
