An Allen Parish couple has been arrested after their 2-month-old infant was taken to a hospital with multiple fractures.

Savannah Folse, 27, and Austin Burke, 24, of Elizabeth were arrested this week on charges of second-degree cruelty to juveniles after the infant was taken to a local hospital with multiple fractures in different stages of healing, according to Allen Parish Sheriff Doug Hebert III.

Both are being held on a $50,000 bond.

The medical staff told detectives that the child had at least 10 fractures to the body and that the fractures could not have been accidental.

Detectives were able to further the investigation and conduct interviews which resulted in the arrest of the couple.

The victim in the case and the other children in the home were taken into the custody of the Department of Children and Family Services, Hebert said.

An investigation into the incident is continuing.
