VICTORVILLE-(VVNG.com): A 33-year-old Apple Valley man is ordered to stay away from his son for possibly up to four years for hitting the 14-year-old with the belt and leaving marks.

Jerod May, as part of a plea bargain made on Monday, June 22, 2015 made a no contest plea to willful cruelty to a child.

The incident took place during an April 16, 2015 visit between the father and son on the 14500 block of Graham Avenue in Victorville.
