The man wanted in the death of a Roseville baby is in custody.
According to Muskingum County Sheriff Matt Lutz, 41 year-old Derek Bush was arrested Friday evening in the area of Ellis Dam.
Bush is currently charged with felonious assault and is awaiting another charge of aggravated murder after his girlfriend’s infant daughter died on July 18.
“Mr. Bush was with the child, the mother was in the vicinity, probably not at the house and I believe from the reports he did take the child over to the Roseville Fire Department and then the child was transported to the hospital from there,” Lutz said.
After leaving the fire department, Bush was seen once more before he became a suspect at large.
The case remains under investigation.

Children are gifts from God they are helpless, clueless, and they love unconditionally. On the 18th of July I made a comment on Derek’s post and we commented back and forth for a few minutes and then Kendra joined in, she said she was on her way home from the doctor so I dropped out of the chatting. But then I heard about baby kennslee and that they were looking for Derek. I can’t get this out of mind and I hope I didn’t make anyone mad. But It seems that the babies were with Derek most of the day, because after she got home she then went to the store and that’s when she got a call no parent ever wants…. The main thought I can’t get out of my head is Derek was with that baby moat if the day and had all that time to hurt her It makes me physically sick to seven think about it. With that said I hope this next part don’t get me in trouble, But here it goes any way he deserves to be taken out in the woods stripped nake tires rotated a tree not to high up just enough where the animals can eat him from the nut sack up after it’s cut open.
Thanks just my opinion and I am entitled to my opinion……..,.
