Deputies were responding to a family disturbance call when they made the 'gruesome' discovery. The 28-year-old was booked into a Sacramento jail.
A Sacramento County father has been arrested on suspicion of beheading his 1-year-old son, sheriff's officials said. Andrey Demskiy, 28, was arrested and booked Friday on felony charges of murder, assault by means of force likely to produce great bodily injury, and corporal injury on a spouse in connection with the child's death, according to authorities and jail records. He is being held in the Sacramento County Main Jail and is ineligible for bail.
Deputies then attempted to contact Demskiy but he refused to answer the door, authorities said. When they learned that a 1-year-old boy was inside the home and had possibly been injured, deputies forced entry and attempted to detain Demskiy, who resisted, authorities said. As Demskiy was taken into custody, deputies made the “gruesome” discovery of a severed child’s head in the bedroom where Demskiy had been, officials said. Authorities said a knife was used in the crime.
