Nathan Weitzel, 29, intentionally crashes car on Eudora Way in attempt to kill 2-year-old son in Arapahoe County, Colorado

According to court records obtained by KUSA, Nathan Weitzel, 29, took his 2-year-old son Isaiah to the park on August 21 at 11 a.m. While he was watching Isaiah play, he thought of a way to kill him.

Nancy Lopez is the loving and hardworking single mother of her son, Isaiah. On Sunday, Isaiah was a passenger involved in a life-threatening car accident. Fortunately, he was delivered to the hospital in time to receive the critical treatment necessary to set him on the road to recovery. Baby Isaiah ripped a muscle in his neck, putting him in a neck brace. He also had to get surgery on his leg, and received five screws in his knee. Finally, he must get 20 to 30 stitches in his head; he is on oxygen for the time being. 

Although Nancy is trying hard to remain positive, she's struggling through the difficult process of helping her two-year-old son to recovery. Nancy must spend approximately 10 weeks off from her job to stay by her son's side through this difficult time. Being out of work for 10 weeks is placing a heavy financial strain on Nancy and her young son. Even the smallest donations, prayers, and positive thoughts would be gratefully appreciated!

Court documents say Weitzel told an Arapahoe County sheriff's investigator that he planned the crash because he didn't "think he was man enough to raise a child." He also reported using cocaine the day of the incident.

Weitzel faces charges of attempted first-degree murder, child abuse resulting in serious bodily injuries, second-degree assault, criminal mischief, vehicular assault and unlawful possession of a controlled substance.
