A local woman is behind bars after CPSO investigators learned she intentionally struck a baby's head up against a wall.

Deputies with the Calcasieu Parish Sheriff's Office were dispatched to a local hospital on Monday, February 12, at about 6:40 p.m. in reference to a "possible cruelty to a juvenile." said a media release. When deputies arrived medial staff informed them a 4-month-old was brought in with a brain bleed.

After further investigation, detectives learned the child was under the supervision of a babysitter, 25-year-old Kristian A. Rosas of Lake Charles. The baby was at her home when an incident occurred where Rosas reportedly "intentionally struck the baby's head against a wall."
