BURR, Neb. (AP) — Authorities say a southeast Nebraska couple kept a 3-year-old boy in a makeshift cage for hours at a time.

23-year-old Louis Arms and 22-year-old Kelsi Gaube were arrested and face charges of child abuse.

An Otoe County jailer said Arms remained in custody on Tuesday. Gaube has bonded out of jail. A phone listing for her couldn’t be found. Court records don’t list attorneys for either of them.

Otoe County Attorney David Partsch says a sheriff’s deputy found the makeshift cage Saturday when responding to a report in Burr about a disturbance. The cage was in a closet that had crib bars rigged across it.

Partsch says deputies think Arms and Gaube called the structure “The Prison” and would keep the boy in it.
