PINEVILLE, La. (AP) - Authorities say a 32-year-old Pineville man has been booked with cruelty to juveniles, joining his girlfriend as a suspect in the case.
The Town Talk reports (https://townta.lk/1yq7A4i) Christopher David Moreau was arrested on Thursday.
Rapides Parish sheriff’s deputies say his live-in girlfriend, Kayla Clare Blanchard, previously had been charged with cruelty to juveniles and domestic abuse battery.
Authorities say the investigation of the incident began on Nov. 30, when deputies were called to a hospital in reference to a complaint of child abuse that occurred in the Pineville area.
Blanchard was arrested on Jan. 15. She was released on bond last week.
Moreau was booked into the Rapides Parish Detention Center and later released on a $25,000 bond.
It was unclear whether they have an attorney.
