An Ottawa man is in big trouble after an injured child was taken to St. Francis Medical Center in Peoria.

Ottawa Police got a call Saturday night from workers at St. Elizabeth Medical Center of a possible child abuse case. Detectives went to Peoria where the injured child was and met with family members.

Monday morning, 23-year-old Steven Berglund of Ottawa was arrested for aggravated battery to a child, a class X felony. He was taken to the La Salle County Jail with bond at a million dollars.
