Day-care workers report 3-year-old boy with bruises and redness on his body and head

WEST LAFAYETTE, IN — Day-care workers noticed injuries on a 3-year-old boy in their facility and called police about 12:15 p.m. Wednesday.

Officers arrived at the day care in the 2300 block of Yeager Road and discovered the boy suffered bruising and redness on his head, back and buttocks, West Lafayette police said.

Officers then went to the 1600 block of Grove Street in Lafayette, where they arrested the boy’s 31-year-old mother on suspicion of neglect of a dependent and domestic battery on a person younger than 14, according to police and jail records.

Charges have not yet been filed.

The mother remained jailed Thursday morning, according to jail records.

Anyone who suspects a child is being abused or neglected should call local police or the Indiana Department of Child Services’ child-abuse hotline at 800-800-5556.
