TWO ARRESTS MADE IN DEATH OF ONE-YEAR-OLD

On 9/6/2023, Officers were dispatched to St. Catherine Hospital in Dodge City to investigate the death of a one-year-old girl. Officers identified the girl as Aramar Zubiate, DOB 09/18/2021. During the initial investigation, Detectives noticed a significant injury to Aramar's head. An autopsy was performed in Kansas City, and showed a significant skull fracture and blunt force impact, indicating a likely homicide. On 9/8/2023, Detectives located Aramar's mother, identified as Rachael Zubiate, age 19, and Rachel's live-in boyfriend, Andrew Phaengsy, age 21, both of Dodge City, and arrested them for the alleged murder of Aramar.  A case was filed with the Ford County Attorney's office for allegations of 1st-degree homicide and child abuse. Both parents were arraigned on Monday, 9/11/2023, and are each being held on $250,000 bond. The Dodge City Police Department would like to remind everyone that this is an ongoing investigation and both subjects are considered innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

El 6 de septiembre de 2023, los agentes fueron despachados al Hospital St. Catherine en Dodge City para investigar la muerte de una niña de un año. Los agentes identificaron a la niña como Aramar Zubiate, nacida el 18 de septiembre de 2021. Durante la investigación inicial, los detectives notaron una lesión significativa en la cabeza de Aramar. Se realizó una autopsia en Kansas City, que reveló una fractura significativa en el cráneo y un impacto contundente, lo que indica un probable homicidio. El 8 de septiembre de 2023, los detectives localizaron a la madre de Aramar, identificada como Rachael Zubiate, de 19 años, y al padrastro, Andrew Phaengsy, de 21 años, los dos de Dodge City, y los arrestaron por el presunto asesinato de Aramar. Se presentó un caso ante la oficina del Fiscal del Condado de Ford por acusaciones de homicidio en primer grado y abuso infantil. Ambos padres fueron encausados el lunes, 11 de septiembre de 2023, y se les fijó una fianza de $250,000 cada uno. El Departamento de Policía de Dodge City desea recordar a todos que esta es una investigación en curso y que ambos sujetos se consideran inocentes hasta que se demuestre su culpabilidad en un tribunal de justicia.
