Two individuals are facing serious charges following an incident at the Red Roof Inn in Summit County that left a one-year-old girl in critical condition. According to WKYC, Springfield Township police arrested 37-year-old Jason Santos, the child's father, and his girlfriend, 36-year-old Jamilee Hunt. Both are from New York, and the charges against them include endangering children and obstructing official business, with Santos also facing a charge of felonious assault.

The incident occurred last Friday, around 9:30 p.m. when officers responded to a 911 call about an unresponsive toddler at the motel located at 2939 S. Arlington Rd. Upon arrival, the officers discovered the young girl on a hotel bed, unresponsive and not breathing, as reported by Cleveland19. CPR was administered, which led to the child regaining a pulse and breathing. Nonetheless, the police observed that the infant showed signs of severe trauma, including extensive bruising, and was rushed to the hospital for urgent treatment.

In their subsequent appearances before a judge in Akron Municipal Court, both Santos and Hunt pleaded not guilty to their charges. A cash bond was set at $1 million for each. Details about the case were sparse, as the Springfield Township Police Department is still investigating it. They have encouraged anyone with information to contact Detective John Simms at the phone number provided.

The child's condition was reported as critical due to the severity of her injuries. This case is particularly disconcerting given the history of police calls associated with this Red Roof Inn, which totals over 1300 in the past four years—highlighting an ongoing issue of criminal incidents at this location, as pointed out by News 5 Cleveland. The community's reaction to the incident has not been detailed. Still, the charges' gravity and the victim's age suggest deep concern and a need for vigilant investigation.
