A woman in Florida was arrested after allegedly abandoning two of her three children at a local hospital.
On August 14, a woman from Dothan, Alabama, was driving in Destin, Florida, with her three children, one of whom is an infant, in the car. She reportedly did not stop the vehicle, but she allegedly told one of the older children to take the baby from the car seat and change their diaper. It was reported that the youngster refused to remove the baby from the car seat while the car was moving.
According to reports, the woman stopped at HCA Florida Destin Emergency. She reportedly told the older children she needed money for gas, and she told them to go into the hospital to see if they could find anything. When they got out of the vehicle, a security guard allegedly saw their mother drive away with the baby, leaving the other youngsters behind. The guard accompanied them into the hospital.
