MStars News recently reported that NBA baller Dwight Howard was being investigated for abusing his young son after baby mama Royce Reed accused the athlete of putting his hands on their child. TMZ reports Howard is under criminal investigation for child abuse. The Cobb County PD in Georgia now has an active criminal investigation into allegations he beat his 6-year-old son Braylon with a belt buckle. The Dept. of Children and Families in Florida (DCF) determined there wasn't enough evidence of child abuse to go forward, but it turns out the incident occurred in Georgia. Howard admits he hit his kid with a belt but says he didn't know it was wrong because he was hit as a kid.

A Georgia law enforcement source told TMZ, "People who were not so forthcoming before today [Monday] have been." The source adds detectives did several one-on-one interviews Monday and say the case "has not been raised to top of the list."

Howard's attorney said Howard's baby mama Reed is "shopping her baseless allegations" to Georgia authorities even though Florida's Dept. of Children and Families found her claims had "no merit."

Apparently, Reed ignored the drama with her baby daddy and celebrated her son's 10th birthday yesterday at Hooters! Bossip reports the reality TV star posted a photo via Instagram. Check it out below:
