BOARDMAN, Ohio - A Boardman man was indicted on Wednesday after police say he seriously injured a two-month-old child.

Steven Wright, 24, was indicted on two counts of child endangering and one count of obstructing official business.

An investigation was conducted by the Boardman Police Department where police say Wright is accused of seriously injuring a two-month-old child during an "incident."

Wright was arrested Thursday without incident in East Palestine by the U.S. Marshals Service's Youngstown Division of the Northern Ohio Violent Fugitive Task Force.

It is unclear at this time the relation of the two-month-old to Wright or the condition of the child's injuries.

Wright is being held in the Mahoning County Jail and pending trial.
