Father arrested on child abuse chargesPosted: Jan 19, 2012 8:09 PM

TUCSON - A father was arrested Thursday on charges of abusing his baby boy.

Tucson Police says they received a call from staff at a local hospital Wednesday afternoon where staff reported a child in the emergency room with signs of physical abuse.

Detectives determined the 7-month-old baby boy's parents brought him to the hospital. The boy, who lives with both parents in the 2300 block of North Camino Castile, had spent the day with his father, 21-year-old Justin Alber.

Afterward, his mother noticed he was having difficulty moving his arms. During the medical examination, hospital staff discovered evidence of multiple fractures of both upper and lower extremities and evidence of soft-tissue blunt force trauma injuries.

The child remains hospitalized in stable condition and in the temporary protective custody of Child Protective Services.

The child's mother will be working closely with Child Protective Services to be reunited with her son.

Detectives charged Alber with five counts of class four felony child abuse.
