BELLEVUE, Neb. (AP) — Police say a young girl found unconscious in a bathtub over the weekend has died, so additional charges may be filed against the 24-year-old Bellevue man who was caring for the toddler.
Bellevue Police say Armond Floyd was watching the girl, who would have turned 2 on Friday, and an infant while their mother worked.
Investigators believe the child’s injuries were not accidental. Police have not detailed the injuries.
At the time of his arrest, Floyd already faced charges of child abuse and other counts for an Oct. 12 incident involving the child’s mother.
He was being held at the Sarpy County Jail on Wednesday. Public Defender Thomas Strigenz, who represents Floyd in the October charges, said Floyd is now scheduled to appear in court on the new charges Thursday.
