A 20-year-old woman faces arrest after two young children were discovered alone near a dumpster outside a high school just north of Detroit. The incident occurred on Saturday afternoon at Lamphere High School in Madison Heights. The children, estimated to be around 2 years and 4 weeks old, were strapped in car seats when found.
A driving school instructor, John Belyea, made the discovery. Stopping for a break at the school, he heard noises he initially thought were cats. Upon closer inspection, he realized the sounds were coming from a child and located the infants near the dumpster. Belyea immediately contacted authorities. The children were transported to a hospital for evaluation, and their parents were subsequently located. Child protective services have been notified. Police have not disclosed whether the woman arrested is connected to the children.
