A Chicago daycare worker is under arrest after being accused of committing the hideous crime of burning 5 defenceless toddlers with a hot glue gun.
Lizandra Cosme, 32, faces five felony counts of aggravated battery to a child after the alleged December 1 incident at Children’s Learning Place, located in the Logan Square area.
Police arrested Cosme at her home in Humboldt Park Sunday afternoon. Investigators say the children involved, two boys and three girls, are all 2 years old. The extent of any injuries is not yet known. A second worker faces misdemeanor charges for not stopping the abuse, authorities say. source
Children’s learning place spokeswoman Lissa Druss Christman emailed this statement to WBBM:
“The wellbeing of our students is paramount. Upon learning of the alleged incident, we notified DCFS immediately and terminated two of our employees. We are currently working with investigators.”
