Woman charged in baby's death

A 22-year-old woman was charged Thursday in connection with capital murder in the death of a Fayetteville toddler.

Fayetteville police arrested Amber Drain in the death of Dominic Doss, 2.

Drain, the girlfriend of the baby’s father, slapped him and beat his head against a floor because Dominic wouldn’t stop crying, according to a police report.

Drain then put the boy in his bed, and didn’t call 9-1-1 until several hours later, when Dominic's sister couldn’t wake him up for breakfast, according to the report.
