Five adults are in custody in a Pennsylvania child abuse case involving sexual acts performed on a 2-year-old and children being shot with BB guns.
Investigators say that children in a Darby home this spring were punched, slapped, thrown over a banister and shot repeatedly with BB guns.
The defendants include three men and two women.
The police affidavit says one of the women was forced to perform sex acts on a 2-year-old boy.
The children also witnessed sex acts between some of the defendants.
Delaware County court documents show that the investigation began in June.
The two women accused are mothers of the five children.
