A Louisiana mother is searching for answers after her young daughter was ‘attacked’ and left with bite marks and red scratches all over her body after attending a preschool in New Orleans.
The incident occurred at Angel’s Haven Daycare in the city’s Hollygrove neighborhood about a week ago.
Mum Cymande Ford was so distraught that she is now determined to find out what really happened and has gone public in hopes of sparking a response at the nursery.
The first time Ford knew something was wrong was after a call from the school principal.
On her way to the nursery, she found her 19-month-old daughter with several bite marks on her arms and legs.
Harley Ford, who is only 19 months old, went to a New Orleans daycare but somehow ended up with red scratches all over her body within hours of leaving her.
The school has explained that the marks were the result of a ‘fight’ with another one-year-old who also attends the same school.
Mom, Cymande Ford is searching for answers after her 19-month-old daughter was attacked at Angel’s Haven Daycare in New Orleans.
“Reliving it is just a horror,” Ford told News19. ‘I see [Harley’s] face, and it looks like it’s been mutilated by a cat, so I start screaming, I’m crying, I drop my bag and I ask what happened. I took Harley, and I’m just asking [the school’s director] what happened.’
The nursery director told Ford that his daughter, Harley, had been involved in a “fight” with another one-year-old boy.
Harley’s photographs show the young woman covered in scratches all over her face, including her cheeks and forehead.
‘[She has] seven bites an arm. A couple bites the other arm. She has pants on, but [the 1-year-old] He has bitten his pants on both legs,’ Ford said. You can see the teeth marks. They are clear and visible.
Ford explained how he found his daughter with multiple bite marks on both arms and legs, which were visible and required medical attention.
The little girl could be seen with red scratches and rashes all over her body.
The incident occurred at Angel’s Haven Daycare in the city’s Hollygrove neighborhood about a week ago.
Ford immediately took his daughter to the hospital to be checked out by doctors.
Ford, who runs her own business, is now eager to send Harley back to daycare.
‘It was hard enough for me to send my son to day care because I own a business. It’s crazy for this to happen on his third day after something I already struggled with so much,” Ford told THAT?
The family has since filed a report with the New Orleans Police Department, and the Department of Children and Family Services is now investigating the matter.
The nursery director declined to comment on the matter when contacted by a local news channel in the area.
Little Harley no longer attends day care after the incident, while her mother decides what to do next.
