    SALEM, Oregon (KPTV) — The Salem Police Department said a daycare operator has been arrested after a Polk County grand jury issued an indictment.

On Wednesday, Bobbie Jo Sanders, 44, of Salem was arrested for first-degree assault and first-degree criminal mistreatment.

The case stems from an investigation conducted by the Salem police and the Oregon Department of Human Services after a child under six years of age was critically injured while in Sanders’ care this past August.

Salem police asks anyone with information about the case, or other unreported incidents involving Sanders or Bobbie Jo’s Daycare, to contact Detective Scotty Nowning at 503-540-2482.
