HOUSTON

A southwest Houston woman has been accused of beating and starving her friend's 4-year-old son, according to police.

Shanque Harrison, 20, is charged with two counts of injury to a child. The boy's mother gave her son to Harrison to raise, police said.

According to investigators, the little boy's teacher first reported the abuse two months ago, but Children's Protective Services officials said they were not able to confirm the alleged abuse until a few weeks ago.

According to investigators, the boy showed up for school in March with a bloody lip. He told his teacher Harrison hit him because he didn't put his sweater on fast enough. Then in May, he came to school with a black eye, but someone put makeup on him to try and conceal the injury,
investigators said.

A medical exam showed he was also suffering from malnutrition, officials said. He told doctors he wasn't allowed to eat at home, said police.
Harrison could get two years in jail on each court, if convicted.

The child has been placed in protective custody.
