Houston Police believe 3-month old Kamron Kelly was shaken to death at an apartment complex on the 7200 block of Hallshire.
The baby died Friday at Texas Children's Hospital after two days in critical condition.
"It tore me up inside yesterday, really it did," said Christopher Robinson. "It tore me up when they told me he had passed away because I tried to do all I could for the little guy."
Robinson is the neighbor who performed CPR on Wednesday, after Nathaniel Flowers ran downstairs saying something was wrong with his girlfriend's baby.
"The whole time I'm doing the chest compressions I was saying look little guy you're going to make, you're going to make it, you all right," Robinson said.
Investigators eventually charged Flowers with injury to a child.
Court records show he has a history of child abuse charges.
In fact, Robinson says Flowers kept trying to leave during CPR.
"He kept trying to walk out, man come on back in the house," said Robinson. "Help me, help me. Where are you going? You've got nowhere to go. We're trying to save this baby right now."
Robinson says he can't believe anyone would try to walk away, let alone shake a baby.
"It's hard to say, I just don't know what to say. I'm speechless when it comes to that. He had a case for it before. So, you can't put nothing past him."
Investigators say Flowers is not in custody.
Neighbors just hope justice is served.
"He deserves to get everything the judge give him," Robinson said. "He deserves it. He done it. He deserves to do his time."
