Police: Girl, 6, tied up, punished for taking food
Girl was allegedly restrained in a bedroom for as long as a week
ROANOKE, Va. - Relatives of a 6-year-old girl in southwestern Virginia are accused of punishing her for taking food from the kitchen by repeatedly tying her up in a bedroom, surrounded by rubber snakes and spiders to scare her, police said Tuesday.
The girl's grandmother, aunt and uncle were in the Bristol, Va., jail on charges related to child abuse.
Bristol Police Sgt. Steve Crawford said there was evidence the girl was restrained in an apartment bedroom various times through July, including one week straight. He said police have reason to believe the practice had gone on longer than that.
