JERSEY CITY, N.J. (AP) — Child endangerment charged
have been filed against a Jersey City woman who allegedly left her five young
children home alone for at least two hours.
Twenty-seven-year-old Shanna Robinson was arrested early Wednesday after she
went to a hospital where authorities had taken her children as a precaution. The
Jersey Journal (http://bit.ly/PqBRNu) reports that Robinson told officers she
had gone to the store at 10 p.m. Tuesday to buy milk and lost track of the
time.
The children — who range in age from 3 months to 8 years — were discovered
when police responded to their home around 10:20 p.m., after someone called
there 911 and hung up. Officers say all the children appeared to be in good
health.
