Leer en espa\u00f1ol<\/a><\/p>\nAccording to an arrest report from the Lauderhill Police Department, the incident occurred Monday, but police were notified about the beating the next day after staff members at Attucks Middle School in Hollywood noticed multiple red marks and welts on the victim\u2019s body.<\/p>\n
Police said the victim was taken to the Nancy J. Cotterman Center and then to Broward Health Medical Center due to pain she was still experiencing in her right hand.<\/p>\n
According to the report, the victim told police that she had used a relative\u2019s credit card without permission to buy clothes a couple weeks ago.<\/p>\n
After her mother found out about it, she picked up the girl from a relative\u2019s home and drove her back to their home in Lauderhill, police said.<\/p>\n
Authorities said after entering the kitchen area, Brittney Lynmara Burgess and the victim\u2019s two aunts began beating her.<\/p>\n
According to the report, the mother used a belt to beat her daughter while one aunt used a ruler and the other used a massage tool.<\/p>\n
The victim told police that she ran to her bedroom where the beating continued.<\/p>\n
According to the report, the victim suffered injuries to her legs, arms and hands. Despite the victim being unable to move her right hand, Burgess took her to school the next morning, where she was unable to write in class due to the pain, authorities said.<\/p>\n
Burgess was arrested Wednesday on a charge of child abuse without great bodily harm.<\/p>\n
A statement she gave to detectives was redacted from the publicly released arrest report. <\/p>\n
She appeared in bond court Thursday where she was ordered to have no contact with her daughter and she is not allowed to possess firearms, weapons or ammunition at this time.<\/p>\n
As of Thursday afternoon, Burgess was being held at the Broward County Main Jail on a $5,000 bond. The identities of the two aunts mentioned in the report have not been released and it\u2019s unclear whether they too will face charges.<\/p>\n
