(KNZA)--A Highland man, convicted of abusing his two-month-old daughter, has been ordered to serve 36-months in jail.

According to court documents, 20-year-old Seth Ramsey was sentenced last week in Doniphan County District Court on a felony count of abuse of a child and three amended misdemeanor counts of endangering a child.

He was given a suspended 41-month prison term on the felony count and sentenced to 12 months in jail on each of the misdemeanor counts, which are to be served consecutively.

Upon completion of his jail sentence, Ramsey will be placed on 36-months supervised probation.

He pleaded no contest to the charges in March.

Ramsey was arrested in January 2022 following an investigation by the Kansas Bureau of Investigation, Highland Police Department and Doniphan County Sheriff's Office.

The infant was treated at a Kansas City hospital for injuries and released.
