Here are the top four stories in Mooresville today:

1. According to an article in the Statesville Record & Landmark, "the parents of an infant are facing charges after authorities responded to a CPR in progress call near Mooresville on Sunday afternoon. Adrian Rashaun Lyons, 25, of Teeter Road, Mooresville, was charged with felony intentional child abuse inflicting serious bodily injury. Lyons appeared before a magistrate who ordered him held without bond due to Lyons being on probation for a prior conviction of felony child abuse in Davie County from 2019. Calinda Linelaine Steinseifer, 29, also of Teeter Road, was charged felony negligent child abuse inflicting serious bodily injury. A magistrate set bond at $150,000. Iredell Sheriff Darren Campbell said that deputies responded to a residence on Teeter Road after receiving a call about CPR in progress on an infant. When the investigators arrived at the hospital, they were briefed by the attending medical staff. They learned the infant had brain swelling, bleeding on the brain and hemorrhages. Medical staff described this as un-accidental brain trauma. The infant was airlifted to Levine’s Children’s Hospital for more advanced treatment.(statesville.com)
