Police probe nursery school injuries

DETECTIVES have questioned five people as part of an investigation into unexplained broken bones suffered by three toddlers who attended a nursery in Nottinghamshire.

Police and Ofsted, the body which oversees nurseries, said they had launched a joint probe last month into the Rocking Horse Nursery in the village of Plumtree after a child was taken to hospital after suffering an unexplained fracture.

“Subsequent enquiries have so far established that two further children who attended the Rocking Horse Nursery had also suffered unexplained fractures this year,” a Nottinghamshire Police spokesman said.
