A Rome man is facing charges after a 6-year-old is seen walking to school in subfreezing temperatures last Thursday.
According to Floyd County Jail records:
A witness reported the child was walking on Burnett Ferry Road and there were several cars lined up behind him.
The school is more than a mile from the child’s home.
The witness said the child had on a jacket but was “ice cold.”
When officers went to speak with 36-year-old Anthony Curt Duran, he acted in a tumultuous manner toward them and continuously pulled away as he was being handcuffed.
Duran is charged with 2nd-degree cruelty to children, disorderly conduct, and obstruction of law enforcement.
