Coney Island dad arraigned in daughter’s death
A Coney Island man is facing murder charges in connection with the death of his 16-month-old baby girl.
Police accuse Shaquan Taylor, 19, of beating his daughter Nylah Lewis to death.
Family members packed the courtroom Monday, tearing up as Taylor was arraigned on a 10-count indictment. Other charges include manslaughter and assault.
Taylor says his daughter's injuries came from falling out of bed.
He faces a maximum of 25 years to life in prison if convicted.
