CHANDLER, AZ -- A father is facing child abuse charges after allegedly putting his 7-month-old son in the freezer.
Police say Chance Kracke admitted he was high on meth when he put the boy freezer.
Kracke told police he was holding his son when he went into the kitchen to make himself a snack.
So, he put his son on the bottom shelf of the freezer and closed the door, according to police.
After a minute or two he heard his son crying so he opened the freezer and instead put the boy on the floor.
The boy had a cut on his forehead, possibly from the freezer door closing on him.
When asked why he put his son in the freezer, Kracke apparently told police because the kitchen floor was too dirty.
Kracke and his wife Leann are facing charges of child abuse, possession of drug paraphernalia and animal cruelty in connection to another matter.
Police also found the couple's 19-month-old daughter next door at the grandmother's apartment and found a burn and multiple bruises all over the girl's body.
