LAUDERHILL, Fla. — Upset that the toddler left in his care wouldn’t stop crying, a 12-year-old boy picked up a baseball bat and beat the little girl to death, police said.

“He became enraged . . . because she made noise while he was trying to watch television,” said police Lt. Mike Cochran.

The boy was believed to be a cousin of 17-month-old Shaloh Joseph, who died from multiple blows to the head, authorities said.

He was arraigned Sunday on a first -degree murder charge in juvenile court, where a judge ordered the youngster held pending a hearing this month.
