A Florida daycare worker was accused of failing to properly supervise a young child who reportedly left a playground area and ran into traffic on a busy highway.
According to authorities, drivers began calling law enforcement shortly after 11 a.m. after spotting a young boy running across a highway. Several motorists reportedly stopped to help and were able to get the child to safety before returning him to the daycare. The child was not injured.
During the investigation, the employee allegedly acknowledged that she was responsible for supervising the child at the time of the incident. Authorities said she explained that she normally checked to make sure a playground gate was secured before children went outside, but she did not do so that day.
