Two-year-old thrown from moving car

EL PASO -- A California man threw a two-year-old boy out of his car in El Paso before crashing the vehicle into a guard rail, police said.

Alfonso Israel De Leon, 34, of San Rafael, Calif., was charged with injury to a child, the El Paso Times reported Sunday.

Police did not identify the boy, who was expected to survive after being treated at Thomason Hospital, officials said.

"It's bizarre. I've never seen anything like it," said El Paso police spokesman Darrel Petry. "A witness saw something come out of the car, and they saw something move."

Investigators believe De Leon was passing through El Paso on his way to California when the incident occurred on a highway access road.

Police said De Leon was traveling with the boy and a 4-year-old girl.

The girl was not harmed, and police declined to describe the relationship between the children and De Leon.

De Leon remained in the El Paso County Jail on Sunday with a bond set at $100,000, detention officer Edward Sustaita said.

Authorities could not say whether or not De Leon had an attorney.

I could not find any reports on this story that showed status

Alfonso Israel De Leon is a complete ANIMAL. What is with these people? I'll bet he is an ILLEGAL ALIEN. How much do you want to bet he was drinking too? Let him rot in jail for the rest of his life.

Sounds like he might be a smuggler.

Regardless, he should be charged with attempted murder!

Unless a lot has changed in Texas in the past 15 years, attempted murder would only be a three year sentence. I had a friend who lived in Texas in 1993. Her ex broke in and shot her in the head, she lived. They opted to charge him with burglary because that had 3x the sentence that attempted murder did. Go figure.
