Kayla Greenwell was charged with multiple counts of child abuse and assault, authorities said.
“PGPD would like to thank Fox5 News for immediately forwarding the video to our Media Relations Division and holding off on airing the video,” police said. “Doing so allowed PGPD to begin the investigation and make a quick arrest. PGPD also appreciates the help from the community in identifying the suspect.”
Greenwell, of Oxon Hill, located about 50 miles from Baltimore, was charged with multiple counts of child abuse and assault, authorities said. She is in the custody of the Department of Corrections. Attorney information was not available. The day care center did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Saturday. Greenwell began working at the center in late March, according to police.
