LANCASTER (CNS) – A 3-year-old girl was found alone Monday in a park in Lancaster, and her parents were questioned by investigators, authorities said.
The little girl was found in a city park located between 10th Street West and Avenue K-8 late Monday night, according to Lancaster Station sheriff’s Sgt. Harold Morrow.
The girl was unhurt and taken into protective custody by deputies, Morrow said.
The parents were questioned by detectives and the child was eventually reunited with them, he added.
The case, however, remains under investigation, Morrow said.

Seems like the dcfs and sheriff department personally pick and choose what kids end up in the system .or return home too inadequate parents …….If they don’t make

I used to play softball a few nights a week at that park some years ago. At night the smell from people smoking pot at night was often strong. Some games would end after 10-10:30pm and there were still the people smoking out with their toddlers and school age kids just roaming the parking lots and playgrounds many times on school nights.

What? And you didn’t run around making self righteous proclamations until somebody beat you into the dirt? Too bad.
Shane falco says
Twice, one of my coworkers and fellow players and I took the kids, got flashlights from our vehicle, and in the dark to find the kids parents. They were oblivious to the fact that their kids were wandering around each time.
There is nothing self-righteous about watching your own kids and being responsible for them. That used to just be a normal way of life.

And probably that child should not be reunited with those parents because how the hell do you not know your three year old child is not with you? how the hell does your 3 year old child get left alone at a park ? how the hell is there no reports been made? It doesn’t sound right to me that child was unattended not being watched not being paid attention to or left!
SERIOUSLY says
I completely agree.. if you “forgot” “lost” whatever once than you will do it again. Then what happens when the outcome isn’t so “happy SMH
Woooow says
that is absolutely crazy! !!! I can not believe she was reunited with her parents! Good ol system we have out there. So sad….
Seriously says
the park is not a free babysitter people!! You cannot sit your child down there and expect the park to take care of your children! Thank God for protecting this girl and letting this article only be about her left in a park and nothing worse! !!!

Been in foster care lately? I saw an episode of C.O.P.S. in which a cop took a kid away from the mom and after the cop dropped off the kid at the child welfare agency she said “if I had known it was this bad I would have left the kid with her mom”
