A Marilla teen has been arraigned on an indictment charging him with murder in the death of a toddler.
Prosecutors say 17-year-old Devon VanDerWege caused the death, by blunt force trauma, of 2-year-old Ethan Bigham while caring for him at a home on Hemstreet Road in March 2017.
According to the District Attorney's Office, VanDerWege pleaded not guilty and was taken to jail without bail.
If convicted, VanDerWege faces a maximum prison sentence of 25 years to life.
