A Dothan father is charged with physically abusing his 5-month-old baby girl.

Sage Steven Pierson, 20, was arrested Saturday and charged with aggravated child abuse, Dothan police say. His bond was set at $30,000.

Cpl. Jerry Moore, the lead investigator on the case, said the baby suffered approximately seven broken bones over the last month.

The latest was a broken left femur that caused the baby to be admitted to Flowers Hospital.
