BURLINGTON, Mass. (AP) - A Massachusetts child care center is being investigated because a teacher allegedly treated a young child roughly.
Middlesex District Attorney Marian Ryan said in a statement that her office received a report of a potential assault and battery on a child at KinderCare in Burlington earlier this week. Burlington police and the state Department of Children and Families are also involved in the investigation.
