Father and friend dragged 4-year-old son on a leash and tied him to a tree

Utah – A father and his friend have been charged after allegedly dragging his four-year-old son across a street on a leash and tying him to a tree so that they could smoke drugs.

The child was dragged across a highway, up over a curb and along 20 feet of landscaped bark, before being tethered to a tree, horrified witnesses told police on 911 calls.

The boy’s father, Richard Marsh (picture), 29, and 35-year-old Paul Rapp, were arrested in Salt Lake City, Utah on Sunday on child abuse and drug possession charges.

The boy suffered minor injuries including road rash after being trailed along by his backpack harness, and is now in the care of his mother. More
