Daycare worker faces charges after alleged child abuse in Oxon Hill
The case against an Oxon Hill daycare worker allegedly seen on video assaulting children at a child care center continues. 23-year-old Kayla Greenwell faces multiple charges and will not be let out of jail before her next court date. FOX 5's Adrienne DiPiazza reports live from police headquarters with details.
PRINCE GEORGE'S COUNTY, Md. - The Oxon Hill day care where an employee was arrested for child abuse last week has been shut down.
Prince George's County police told FOX 5 Friday that the Oxon Hill Center for Early Learning was closed by the state.
Kayla Greenwell, 23, remains behind bars and is facing child abuse and assault charges after videos surfaced of her mistreating two young kids.
FOX 5 initially received the footage and notified Prince George's County police. Greenwell was arrested on Saturday, April 8.
Her family appeared in court Monday and asked for anonymity, saying they have faced harassment and threats since the news broke.
