The father of five-year-old Native girl who has been missing for two months pleaded guilty to assaulting his pregnant girlfriend.

Troy Keepness says he has been under a lot of stress since daughter Tamra Keepness disappeared. He faces more charges for allegedly assaulting Tamra's stepfather the night the girl was last seen.

Tamra went to bed at her family's home in Regina, Saskatchewan, on July 5. The family reported her missing the next day. Police have run out of leads and have little information in the case.
