Child endangerment incident in Boćki

Overview

A 47-year-old man in Boćki, Podlaskie, faces charges of endangering a child after striking his 4-year-old son with a car and trailer on private property. The child was airlifted to a hospital in Białystok for treatment of lung contusions, though his life is not considered to be in danger.

The suspect has admitted guilt, stating he believed the child was inside the house. This incident follows a previous accident in August 2023, where the same man struck and killed his 10-month-old son with a vehicle. In that instance, an appellate court had reduced a previous prison sentence to a fine in October 2025.
