PIERRE, S.D. (AP) - A Parmelee woman has been sentenced for twice striking another woman’s baby during an altercation in a store parking lot in Mission.
Authorities say 22-year-old Charlee Spotted Tail started the altercation in March 2016 with a woman who was holding her 6-month-old child. Spotted Tail tried to strike the woman but missed and instead struck the baby in the head. She then hit the child a second time before fleeing.
U.S. Attorney Randolph Seiler says Spotted Tail pleaded guilty in June to an assault charge and was recently sentenced to four months in custody to be followed by a year of supervised release.
