A man faces charges after investigators say he bit his six-month-old child while caring for the child in Owatonna.

The charges stem from an incident reported to authorities in early October 2025 after investigators were alerted to possible abuse involving a six-month-old child.

Kyle Richard Dagit, 22, of Owatonna, is charged with felony third-degree assault of a victim under four, two counts of malicious punishment of a child and misdemeanor domestic assault, according to a criminal complaint filed in Steele County District Court.
