TAMPA, Fla. (AP) ? The godmother of a 20-month-old boy is accusing of putting the child in a scalding hot bath that caused second-degree burns.

The boy was treated at a Tampa hospital after he was burned Wednesday. According to jail records, his godmother, 19-year-old Gladiesha Foster, is being held without bond in the Hillsborough County jail, charged with aggravated child abuse. It's unclear if Foster has an attorney.

Tampa police say Foster put the boy in the hot bath when she was baby-sitting him.
