TWENTYNINE PALMS MAN ACCUSED OF ABUSING A BABY

A Twentynine Palms man was arrested Monday, accused of child abuse against a baby. According to a Sheriff’s report, detectives were called to the pediatric unit at Loma Linda Medical Center by doctors who said the four-month-old baby girl’s severe injuries were caused by non-accidental trauma, consistent with child abuse. Detectives learned the girl’s father, Andrew Valenzuela, 25, was caring for the infant at a home in the 6400 block of Athol Avenue in Twentynine Palms, and that he was responsible for the injuries. Andrew Valenzuela was arrested for investigation of willful cruelty to a child, booked into the Central Detention Center, with his bail set at $100,000. Anyone with information about this case is asked to call Detective Mike Bell at 909-387-3615.
