Connecticut man teaches toddler not to bite by biting him all over

A city man was in custody Wednesday after police said he bit his 3-year-old nephew all over his body to teach the boy not to bite anyone.

Hector Pulido, 40, of North Summerfield Avenue, was charged with third-degree assault and risk of injury to a minor.

Superior Court Judge Michael Maronich ordered Pulido held in lieu of $100,000 bond. The case was continued to next Thursday.

The allegations came to light when police were called to a day-care center on Fairfield Avenue Tuesday to investigate a complaint of child abuse. The day-care staff showed officers that the boy had adult bite marks on his chest, abdomen, shoulder, back, thigh, leg and buttocks, police said.
