A woman tells Fox 26 police watched video that shows her 5-year-old child alone in the daycare van for 56 minutes.
mother is in disbelief after she says a daycare facility left her 5-year-old alone in the company van outside for nearly an hour.
"Instead of them coming out to me, the manager came out and asked me to come inside," says the boy's mother. "She told me my son didn't get off of the van when they got there. He was asleep. They didn't realize he was asleep. She told me they got inside, did a headcount, and realized they were short one kid."
"When we got home, he told me that he was in the van for six minutes," says the mom. "Him having no concept of time, just made me think twice." Shortly after she called the police, a Pearland officer showed up to the facility to investigate the incident. The officer told the mother video shows a parent who was coming to pick up their own child spotted the 5-year-old inside of the van, and ran inside to alert the staff.
The Texas Department of Family and Protective Services says cases like this are often reported to their office.
