The child, found in the middle of the road, was "perfectly OK," said Officer James Holmes, Phoenix police spokesman, told The Arizona Republic. The car seat was damaged, Holmes told TV station KTVK. The baby is in the custody of Arizona Child Protective Services, officials said. At about 1 a.m. Saturday, police got calls from the area near North 45th Avenue and West Cholla Street in northwest Phoenix that a baby was in a car seat in the middle of a road, The Arizona Republic reported. Phoenix Fire Department officials found the baby and took him to a local hospital, officials said. Holmes told reporters that the mother, Catalina Clouser, had apparently been smoking marijuana late Friday night at a nearby park with her boyfriend. About 11 p.m. they left the park to buy some beer, and the boyfriend was arrested on aggravated DUI charges while on the way, Holmes told The Republic. An upset Clouser then reportedly went to a friend's house, where police say she admitted smoking more marijuana, Holmes said. Clouser left the house with the baby asleep in the car seat about midnight, he said. Before driving away, Clouser apparently forgot that she had left her child sitting on the roof of her car, Holmes said. Clouser realized the baby was missing when she reached home, and started calling friends to look for him and retrace her route, KTVK reported. The friends ran into the officers investigating the found the baby, and when Clouser arrived, she was arrested, KTVK reported. [/quote] What a fucking bitch.
Well, she deserves whatever she's got coming.
Oh wow. Just, beyond fucked up.
19 years old
Well at least the car seat did its job
okay the fact that she smoked weed explains why she forgot about the kid, but it's not an excuse
Oh wow holy shit I thought she did something like this; [t]http://www.smays.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/Screen-shot-2009-11-26-at-Thu-Nov-26-12.10.37-PM.png[/t]

[QUOTE=FFStudios;36175949]okay the fact that she smoked weed explains why she forgot about the kid, but it's not an excuse[/QUOTE] Normally I don't blame weed, but honestly there aren't many people out there stupid enough to forget about their child on the roof of their car.
Once I left my underwear on top of the car (don't ask), and when I drove off they smacked the windshield of the guy behind me :v:
Arizona.
When you have a child, I'd think it would be wise to drop the blunt for a long while. But no, see this is what happens. Now she has no child

[QUOTE=Dantai;36177166]Isn't that exactly what she did?[/QUOTE] He probably thought that she just left the baby laying on top of the car and drove off not strapped to a car seat.

When I use to deliver pizzas, I left the pizza on the roof of my car one day and I drove back and saw pizza splattered across the road.:v:
I want to say that this is an honest mistake that anyone could make, but it really fucking isn't. I've never raised a kid myself, or even smoked weed, or done both at the same time, but you'd figure a new parent would check and double-check that the kid was securely fastened in the car.
I know a lady who did something like this. She was buying shit at the store and drove home and left her baby in the shopping cart.
