TACOMA, Wash. - A six-week old baby is in the hospital after her father reportedly put the little girl in a freezer for an hour on Saturday afternoon to stop her from crying, Pierce County Sheriff's spokesman Ed Troyer said.

Tyler Deutsch, 25, was arrested south of the Pierce County town of Roy for investigation of attempted murder, Troyer said. He is in the Pierce County Jail awaiting a Tuesday court appearance.

The little girl, who was taken to Mary Bridge Children's Hospital, had a body temperature of 84 degrees, but is expected to recover, Troyer said.

The girl's 22-year-old mother frantically called police when she saw her boyfriend taking the infant out of the freezer.

Troyer said police believe the baby was left in the freezer for about an hour at the couple's home in the 7600 block of 320th Street South.
