The management of the apartment complex the kids were found at said the police narrative was not correct.
– Police in Lake County, Indiana said they found two young children alone inside an apartment without heat for several hours while their mother was at work, but there are conflicting stories about exactly what happened.
Officers arrived to find a 5-year-old and 6-year-old alone without functioning heat from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Their mother had gone to work at a local grocery store.A maintenance employee was able to get into the apartment to repair the heat and discovered the only food the children had was ice cream and Pepsi.
The children were wearing coats, but were still shivering in the cold apartment, police said. Their mother, 44, was arrested pending criminal charges of neglect of a dependent. But CBS 2 spoke with people at the property management office and they contradicted the police narrative. While they couldn't give CBS 2 much information on camera, they said the unit had heat and they were expecting corrected information from the sheriff's department.Police said the Indiana Department of Child Services is investigating.
CBS 2 reached out to the sheriff's department to find out the mother's name and what response they had to the apartment workers contradicting their information. The sheriff's office said it stands by its initial report. The information was based on surveillance video and witness statements.
