The child had a doctor’s appointment on Tuesday, and was healthy, reports NBC Connecticut. The child then visited with the biological parents and grandparents. Between that visit and Tuesday evening, the foster parents noticed the injuries.

All parties are cooperating with the East Windsor Police Detective Bureau and Department of Children and Family Service investigation and police are trying to figure out where else the child was, who he or she might have been with, and who is responsible for the injuries.
