A baby was clinging to life Tuesday at a Dallas hospital, suffering from severe injuries that he may have sustained at an Irving home, Irving police said.

The 4-month-old boy whom Irving police did not identify was at Children's Medical Center of Dallas in critical condition, Irving police said Tuesday.

Irving police arrested the baby's father, Javier Ernesto Rodriguez, 19, early Tuesday on suspicion of injury to a child.

Irving investigators responded to the hospital about 2 a.m. Tuesday on a case of possible child abuse.

The infant was taken to the hospital Monday evening, and hospital officials notified Dallas police. Learning that the injuries may have occurred in Irving, Dallas police contacted Irving investigators.

After police interviews with the parents of the baby, doctors and hospital officials, Rodriguez was taken into custody on the charge. Police did not release any other details about the injuries.

The family lives in the 3300 block of Willow Creek Drive in Irving; no information was released on whether the family had any other children.
