Original Story:
Two people have been arrested by Lexington police on Tuesday and charged with criminal abuse after a citation reported that an infant is in critical condition due to injuries sustained from “physical abuse.”
According to the citation, Amancio Torres-Trevino Jr. was charged with first-degree child 12 or under criminal abuse after he allegedly “intentionally physically abused the victim,” resulting in serious internal injuries.
Kaela Walker was also arrested and charged in connection to the crime. Relatives of Walker told LEX 18 that she is the child’s mother.
The citation added that the infant remains in critical condition “due to the injuries sustained as a result of the physical abuse.”
