A man was arrested on a Miami County warrant for involvement in the physical abuse of a child.

The investigation began on January 27 when detectives with the Miami County Sheriff's Office responded to Peyton Manning Children's Hospital in Indianapolis. Information was obtained by hospital staff that a four-month old male was being treated for multiple rib fractures and bruising. The six-week investigation resulted in the arrest of the child's father, Steven Timm, 29.

Timm was preliminarily charged with two Level 3 felony counts of domestic battery resulting in serious bodily injury, one Level 5 felony count of domestic battery resulting in bodily injury and a Level 3 felony of neglect of a dependent resulting in serious bodily injury. The first two charges both include "to a person less than 14-years old."

Timms was booked into the Miami County Jail on $100,000 bond.
