Felton, Del. — A former childcare worker in Felton is facing child abuse charges after being accused of pushing a juvenile victim to the ground on three separate occasions. Felton Police began their investigation earlier this month after receiving a report about the incidents, which occurred at a facility located on the 300 block of Ludlow Lane.
Detectives discovered surveillance footage showing 26-year-old Ariel H.L. Dill of Harrington pushing the victim. Police say Dill was fired from the facility before they began their inquiry. Fortunately, the juvenile was not injured during the incidents.
On April 25, Dill turned herself in to the Dover Police Department, where she was charged with one count of offensive touching. Dill was released on her recognizance and issued a no-contact order with the victim pending a future court appearance.
