A 36-year-old man is accused of assaulting a 6-year-old girl during a party over the weekend.
State police say they responded to the Town of Yorkshire on Sunday and learned that the girl was grabbed by her neck and thrown to the ground, causing bruising and abrasions.
On Tuesday, they found Roberto Alejandro of Gowanda and charged him with assault and endangering the welfare of a child. He’s in Cattaraugus County Jail on $10,000 bail.
