Motel Babysitter
On October 9, 2019, the Harris County Fire Marshall Service responded to a fire at a motel located on Cypresswood Ct. in Spring, Texas. Investigators arrived to find the building heavily engulfed by fire and smoke. Investigators were able to determine that two children were left alone in the motel while their caretaker went to get pizza. The oldest child reported being in the bed crying while it was on fire. A guest on the same floor heard the fire alarm and both children screaming and stepped out of his room to find the oldest child holding a cigarette lighter. That guest decided to take the children to the motel’s front office since there was not an adult with them. When the caretaker returned, she admitted to leaving the children alone for a short period and was charged with two counts of child endangerment. A call came into the tip line that provided the location of the suspect and she was arrested without incident.
