Friday, June 18, 1999 | 6:05 a.m.

Gary French was arrested Tuesday, two days after Carlin police were summoned to a home he shared with the victim's mother, Elko County Sheriff Neil Harris said.

Tanner Lynch was found unconscious when police arrived. He was taken to Elko General Hospital, then transferred to Primary Children's Hospital in Salt Lake City, Harris said.

The child on Friday was reported in critical condition with head and internal injuries, a broken leg and broken fingers, Harris said.

French, 23, of Carlin, remained jailed on $50,000 bail.

An investigation by Carlin police, the Elko County sheriff's office and the Elko Juvenile Crime Task Force continued.
