ORANGEBURG COUNTY, SC (WIS) -

An Orangeburg County man out on bond for a homicide by child abuse charge is back in jail Friday. This time, investigators say, he sexually assaulted an 8-year-old girl.

The Orangeburg Department of Public Safety says 34-year-old Anwar Young was arrested Thursday after a 3-day investigation into the alleged assault. 

In 2009, Young was arrested by the Orangeburg County Sheriff's Department after investigators said he shook a 2-month-old baby to death.

According to the incident report at the time, Young told investigators he became angry and shook the baby. The report also stated Young called 911 when he noticed blood coming from the baby's nose.

Young was out on a $35,000 bond for the homicide by child abuse charge. The bond amount for the sexual assault case was set at $30,000.
