Ottawa Man Remains Jailed For Allegedly Killing His Child

A hefty bond amount for a young Ottawa dad charged in his child’s death.

Raymond Fisher Jr. is being held in the La Salle County Jail on 750 thousand dollars bond.  He needs 75 thousand to be bailed out.

Fisher Jr. was arrested Thursday for involuntary manslaughter and aggravated battery to a child.  Investigators say his 6-month child was found unresponsive in Streator last August and died while at St. Francis Medical Center in Peoria.

An autopsy found the infant died of blunt force trauma to the head and internal bleeding.
