EUGENE, Ore. (AP) - A mom is facing charges related to her child being left in a hot car on Wednesday.
The Eugene Register Guard reports (https://bit.ly/1fLDCGE) Eugene police responded to three reports of kids being left in hot cars on a day when temperatures hovered around 100 degrees.
A sweaty, distressed baby was taken out of a locked car after a Walmart employee broke the window. The mom has been charged with child neglect and is not being identified pending possible involvement from Oregon’s Department of Human Services.
Another woman said she forgot her baby was with her when she went shopping at Albertsons.
Police questioned a third mother after her kids were found screaming inside a hot car parked outside First Place Family Shelter. It’s unclear whether she’ll be charged.
