The Kansas Department of Health and Environment has suspended the license of a day care provider in Beloit. The license of the day care home operated by Margo Hyman was suspended Friday.

The emergency suspension comes as a result of a report from the Beloit Police Department , and Kansas SRS that there had been an investigation regarding injuries to a 9 year old boy in the care of Hyman.

The boy said that Hyman had slapped him in head twice. The child has bruising on his face, and another child reported that Hyman had slapped the 9 year old boy.

The Beloit Police Department requested that the day care home be closed while it is re-evaluated for the safety of children in care.

KDHE says that Hyman has a right to a hearing on the issue.
