3 New Felony Counts Against Man Who Injured Actress' Son

BEVERLY HILLS, CA – Prosecutors added three new felony counts Thursday against a transient who allegedly smashed the window of a car containing actress Jaime King's 4-year-old son, who was struck by shattered glass earlier this month in Beverly Hills.

Paul Francis Floyd, 47, pleaded not guilty to an amended complaint charging him with one felony count each of child abuse and assault by means of force likely to produce great bodily injury, two felony counts of vandalism with over $400 of damage and one misdemeanor count of vandalism with under $400 in damage.

Prosecutors had initially charged him with a felony count of vandalism with over $400 in damage and one misdemeanor count each of cruelty to a child by endangering health, battery and vandalism with under $400 in damage.

King's young son was inside his mother's Mercedes-Benz when Floyd allegedly went on a vehicle-smashing rampage about 4:40 p.m. April 4 in the 400 block of North Bedford Drive, near Santa Monica Boulevard.

Prosecutors allege Floyd kicked and broke the grill of a Lexus, then jumped on the hood on King's parked Mercedes-Benz, breaking the front and rear windows.

King's son was struck by shattered glass while in his car seat inside the Mercedes with a friend of the actress, who was outside the car. When the friend emerged from the vehicle with the boy, the suspect allegedly threw a beer can at her, which struck her arm.

Officers arrived "within minutes and promptly detained the suspect," who had been "kicking and jumping on" two vehicles, according to Beverly Hills police.

In an Instagram posting, the actress known for her co-starring role on the 2011-15 CW comedy-drama "Heart of Dixie" called the attack "incredibly violent" and "terrifying" for her and her son. She also lashed out at paparazzi who were on the scene.

"I want to believe that we live in a world where human integrity comes before documenting an attack. I'm saddened that the paparazzi chose to terrorize my son and I by shoving cameras in our face during an attack, whilst he was shaking and crying, instead of trying to help," she wrote.

Bail for Floyd, who has remained behind bars since his arrest, was increased from $40,000 to $115,000 as a result of the new charges, according to the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office.

He is due back at the Airport Courthouse May 17, when a date is scheduled to be set for a hearing to determine if there is enough evidence to require him to stand trial on the charges.

If convicted as charged, Floyd faces up to 11 years and four months in state prison, according to the District Attorney's Office.
