Killeen, Tx FOX44 — A Killeen woman has been arrested after police say she left a month-old child alone to travel out of town to visit a man she met on a dating app. An arrest affidavit stated the actual incident occurred back on July 28, when police officers were called to an apartment in the block of East Hallmark on a child welfare check.
The caller had stated that a child was hanging out of a broken window. An officer arriving on the scene found a toddler with his head and shoulders protruding from the front ground level window. There was what was described as an aggressive dog that was charging at other residents attempting to help the child. The officer noted that the window was not actually shattered but had been repaired previously with plexiglass sheeting and cardboard. The officer made entry into the apartment and found the male child wearing a t-shirt and nothing else.
A sweep of the apartment showed the child to be alone with two dogs who were very protective of the child. The affidavit stated the officers observed that obvious precautions had been taken to leave the child alone without a sitter, with all other doors closed off and a baby gate blocking the kitchen area.
The deadbolt on the apartment door was locked along with all of the other windows. The affidavit stated the officer contacted the baby sitter who told them she had not spoken to Myers since December The child was taken to Advent Health for assessment and Child Protective Services took custody of him.
