Man Abandons 9-Month-Old In Shed and Flees | True Crime Daily Brief
Episode 462, Oct 02, 2022, 03:00 PM
Authorities said a 43-year-old man stole a truck and left his 9-month-old daughter, who was injured, in a shed.
Katherine McClain reportedly phoned police at 6 a.m. on Saturday, September 24 after hearing a loud truck outside her house, as reported by KPRC-TV. Someone stole their neighbor's truck, according to her daughter, who peeked out the window and watched it happen.
McClain's husband reportedly viewed surveillance footage of the property and saw a man in his underwear strolling next door, getting into the truck, and driving away. The man allegedly also attempted to break into their yard-parked cars. It was alleged that the footage was timestamped at around 3 a.m.
Officers from the Livingston Police Department reportedly looked at the camera footage, took fingerprints from the cars, and discovered blood in several of them. Clifford Guynes was spotted driving the stolen car by police, according to KPRC.
After around three hours, McClain and her family heard their dogs barking at the shed and discovered the 9-month-old daughter who had been left inside.
McClain told KPRC it was a "terrible event."
There are reports that the toddler was sent to Texas Children's Hospital with a shattered femur. The child's status is unclear at this time, but KHOU-TV reports that she is doing well and is expected to make a full recovery.
According to the Polk County Jail records, Guynes was arrested and jailed on charges of harm to a child and abandoning/endangering a kid. He remains imprisoned on $200,000 bond.
On September 16th, Guynes was reportedly detained for violating his parole, as reported by KPRC.
