Two Ohio parents were arrested after their newborn twins were found with broken bones and injuries – which cops said were caused by abuse.
SueAnn Carter, 27, and Codi Alexander Ronald Allen, 20, were taken into custody after a social worker notified police that a pair of five-week-old babies had been brought into the Nationwide Children’s Hospital with suspicious injuries.
The kids had initially been taken to Southern Ohio Medical Center for possible broken arms and blood hemorrhages in their eyes. It is unclear whether it was the parents who were brought there.
Upon seeing the apparent severity of the injuries, the babies were transferred to the children’s hospital, where they were found to have broken bones in their arms, legs, ribs, along with bruising across their bodies and faces, and blood hemorrhages in their eyes.
Police were called after hospital staff suspected the injuries were non-accidental, and the children were removed from the parents’ care by child services.
After interviewing family members, police ultimately arrested Carter and Allen. The pair face charges of endangering children, and felonious assault.
They are being held on $340,000 bond and are due at the Portsmouth Municipal Court on February 23, 2023.
The investigation into the abuse is ongoing.
