Pine Bluff - A Pine Bluff woman was placed in custody Sunday night after allegedly attempting to murder her 12-day-old son.
The newborn remains in critical, but stable condition after suffering numerous injuries.
Pine Bluff police said the case was particularly disturbing because it involved the abuse of a newborn baby. According to Pine Bluff police, officers arrived at 3005 Iris Street around 4:00 p.m. in response to a possible kidnapping.
There, they found 23-year-old, Tonya Alice Reaves who said she had been kidnapped and legit by the railroad tracks near the home she shares with her parents.
However, police soon found inconsistencies in Reves' story and upon further questioning, charged her with attempted murder of her newborn son, who had been found at the home with various injuries.
The malnourished 12-day-old reportedly had been choked, stabbed in the back and suffered head trauma, several broken ribs, a collapsed lung and a broken arm. Police say this incident came as a surprise to people who know Reves, who does not have a previous criminal record.
(Lt. Bob Rawlinson, Pine Bluff Police Department) "This was kind of a shock, it seems like to everybody that knew her. But the fact is, this happened and she's under arrest for it and we're going to have to make sure the baby stays okay and is taken care of."
The newborn remains in the custody of the Department of Human Services. Reaves will be in court Monday morning.
