Police have arrested a Pembroke Pines woman for allegedly burning her 9-year-old son with a hot iron.
Authorities say 32-year-old Tamecha Jean became "infuriated" and burned the boy when she learned he left his homework at school.
Police arrived at their Pembroke Pines home around 4 p.m. Monday after responding to an abuse hotline call. Jean was arrested and charged with aggravated child abuse.
The 9-year-old and two siblings have been placed in the care of child protective services.
