GAINESVILLE, Fla. - Two University of Florida scientists were arrested after police discovered they were caging their kids.
Dustin Huff, 35, and Yurui Xie, 31, were arrested on Friday for child abuse after one of their kids told a school official he didn't want to go home because he didn't want his parents to put him in his cage, police said.
The couple is accused of keeping their small children inside small cages as they left for work. Both were full-time employees of The University of Florida and placed on administrative leave on Monday, officials said.
