A Texas daycare worker was arrested Tuesday after video surfaced showing her slamming a small toddler to the ground.
The Daily Caller reports that Jazmine Torres, of Plano, has been taken into custody and charged with a felony count of child endangerment.
Investigations began after a mother watching live surveillance video of the Children’s Courtyard daycare saw a worker toss her 18-month-old son onto a mat face-first. Initially, the daycare did not believe the mothers reports; however, after reviewing the video, the daycare launched their own investigation and fired Torres.
The daycare notified authorities and state agencies of the incident and has since cooperated with investigators.
