DETROIT (AP) - Authorities say a father has been detained for questioning by Detroit police after leaving his infant and toddler sons locked in a car in a casino parking structure while he gambled inside.

Detroit police say officers were called to the MotorCity Casino parking garage Monday morning after the 5-month-old and 2-year-old boys were found and rescued by employees. The children weren’t hurt.

The police department’s Child Abuse Unit and Child Protective Services are assisting in the investigation.
