GREENWICH, Connecticut (WABC) -- A woman is facing criminal charges after police say she force fed a toddler at a daycare in Connecticut.

Police say Karen von Tobel, 56, turned herself in after a co-worker recorded the incident.

It happened at a YMCA in Greenwich back in October.

Investigators say the video, which hasn't been released yet, shows the 17-month old gagging and choking on the food.

The toddler wasn't hurt.
