Cops Throw Flash Bang into Child's Playpen

A 19-month-old boy was critically injured when Georgia police threw a police flash bang device into his playpen during a drug raid before dawn Wednesday. Habersham County cops raided the house on suspicion that Wanis Thometheva had sold methamphetamine from the residence. They tossed in the device to distract occupants, not knowing that Bounkham Phonesavanhs, his parents and three older sisters were all asleep in the room. "It blew open his face and his chest," said the boy's mother, Alecia Phonesavan. Authorities did not make any arrests, nor did they find anything at the house during the raid.
