GASTON COUNTY, N.C. — Police make an arrest after a toddler’s remains were found in Gaston County.
William ‘Skip’ McCullen has been charged with first degree murder. Officials called off the search for a missing three-year-old after search crews found the remains of a toddler in a wooded area.
Jordan Dumont disappeared Monday afternoon at a home on Bess Town Road.
The mother’s boyfriend, William McCullen, told police he was watching Jordan and her 1-year-old sibling while their mom was at work.
He told police he fell asleep and when he woke up about two hours later the little girl was gone.
The FBI is on the scene. WCCB’s Amy Cowman says Jordan’s mother nor McCullen have been seen at the home since the remains were found.
Ramey says search and rescue crews along with bloodhounds searched a roughly one mile area Monday. The remains were found Tuesday morning.
Next-door neighbors Michael and Nicole Crumbley say they’ve seen police at the home in the past and describe a violent situation.
“The momma’s come over here bloodied from the daddy. They’re beating each other over there,” she says.
