A city man charged with seriously injuring a 2-month-old boy will have his case proceed to county court after waiving his preliminary hearing earlier this week.

Kindu Quaimaine Pollard, who has no fixed address, waived his preliminary hearing before Judge Jodie Richardson on Feb. 24 on one count each of aggravated assault and endangering the welfare of children.

Pollard, 27, is accused of assaulting the victim in November 2025.

Officials at a local hospital contacted police after finding the victim with bruises on his face and legs as well as burst blood vessels in his eyes. One of the victim’s doctors later told police that the infant’s traumatic injuries were not accidental.

The victim’s mother told police the infant did not have the injuries before being in Pollard’s care between Nov. 11 and 13.

In an interview with police Pollard admitted that the victim had obtained some of the injuries while in his care.

Pollard remains in Lancaster County Prison in lieu of $50,000 bail.

Lancaster City Bureau of Police officer Micaela Heckman filed the charges.

Assistant District Attorney Jennifer Ponessa will prosecute the case.

All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty.
