CHARLOTTE COUNTY - A Charlotte County man has been charged with abusing a 3-month-old baby.

Sheriff's deputies say 23-year-old Vincent Silio Orlando of Rotonda West violently shook the child. The Charlotte Correctional Institute employee was arrested after bringing the baby to Peace River Medical Center.

Medical tests showed the baby was the victim of shaken baby syndrome, and this was likely the third time the child had been shaken.

The baby is now at All Children's Hospital.

Orlando is charged with Aggravated Child Abuse.
