A 26-year-old woman has been arrested in connection with unexplained fractures suffered by several babies in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) of a Virginia hospital.
Police have arrested a 26-year-old woman after several babies at a Virginia hospital’s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) suffered unexplainable fractures. Erin Elizabeth Ann Strotman, of Chesterfield County, is facing charges of malicious wounding and felony child abuse in connection to an incident that occurred in November 2024, Henrico County Police said in a Friday news release.
On Christmas Eve, Henrico Doctors’ Hospital announced it would not be admitting any additional babies into our NICU at this time after three babies were found with fractures in November and December 2023. The injuries were similar to an incident involving four babies in the summer of 2023, the hospital release stated. We are both shocked and saddened by this development in the investigation and are focused on continuing to care for our patients and providing support to our colleagues who have been deeply and personally impacted by this investigation, the statement read. We are grateful to those colleagues, who have dedicated their professional lives to the care and safety of our patients, as well as to law enforcement and the other agencies who have worked aggressively and tirelessly with us on this investigation, it continued, adding that the hospital will continue to focus on providing necessary and life-saving care to babies in the community. Police said they have been reviewing dozens of videos from inside the NICU and are re-examining the 2023 and 2024 cases as part of this broader investigation, according to the report. We appreciate the families’ and public’s patience as we work as thoroughly and expeditiously as possible to investigate every piece of evidence in connection to these cases, Henrico Chief of Police Eric D. English said in the release
