The magnetic and transport properties of the Cr-doped manganites La0.46Sr0.54Mn_1-yCryO₃ ( 0≤y≤0.08) with the A-type antiferromagnetic structure were investigated. Upon cooling, we find multiple magnetic phase transitions, i.e., paramagnetic, ferromagnetic (FM), antiferromagnetic (AFM), and spin glass in the y0ex0ex=0ex0ex0.02 sample. The low temperature spin glass state is not a conventional spin glass with randomly oriented magnetic moments but has a reentrant character. The reentrant spin glass behavior accompanied by the anomalous multiple magnetic transitions might be due to the competing interactions between the FM phase and the A-type AFM matrix induced by the random Cr impurity.
