A 6-year-old boy is fighting for his life after his neighbor struck his head with a baseball bat in Georgetown, Texas.

What happened: Daniel Logan, 39, allegedly broke into the family’s home in the 300 block of Rock Mill Loop at around 5 a.m. on Sept. 11. Armed with the bat, Logan hit 6-year-old Jeremy Tang Diaz in the head and tried to attack his parents, Yilin and Arturo. Jeremy sustained critical injuries that sent him into a coma.

Before breaking into his neighbors' home, Logan attacked his own mother, Cynthia, with the bat, according to Fox 7 Austin. She reportedly suffered a broken tooth, a facial laceration and periorbital edema around her left eye.
