Francisco Villatoro was arrested on suspicion of child abuse resulting in serious injury. Officers and medics were sent to a Columbus residence on Saturday morning after Villatoro called 911 to report that the child was choking. The child was taken to Columbus Community Hospital and then transferred to Omaha Children’s Hospital & Medical Center in Omaha.

Online court records don’t list the name of an attorney who could be contacted to comment about the allegation on behalf of Villatoro.
