Woman held over hurt baby

A woman has been arrested on suspicion of causing grievous bodily harm after a baby suffered severe head injuries while at day nursery.

The woman, who is believed to have been working at the nursery, was arrested at her home.

The eight-month-old boy was playing in a supervised area at the nursery in Bracknell when he was found with blood on his head.

The boy, who has not been named, was taken to the Royal Berkshire Hospital, Reading, then transferred to Great Ormond Street Hospital after being injured three weeks ago.

He was transferred back to the Royal Berkshire Hospital the following morning. The baby was only returned to his distraught parents last week after lengthy treatment.

A Bupa spokesman called the incident "an awful accident" and added that no one had been suspended.
