26 Children Found Hidden Behind False Wall At Daycare
When officers tried to contact a daycare owner at her residence, they said they could hear children making noise behind a false wall.
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (CBS4) — Officials investigating complaints about a daycare in Colorado Springs found more than two dozen children — all under the age of 3 — behind a false wall that led to the basement of the owner’s home. Police say the owner, 58-year-old Carla Faith, refused to cooperate with officers.
The Department of Human Services (DHS) asked the Colorado Springs Police Department to help with a welfare check at the Play Mountain Place on Wednesday. Officials say they received complaints that the facility was housing more children in their care than their license allowed.
