Idiot Mother Leaves Her Son in Hot Car-105 Degrees Outside

A 27-year-old Dallas County mother was arrested on Monday, accused of leaving her young son alone in a hot car. The child survived, but things could have been much worse. Topping out at 107 degrees, Monday was the hottest day of the year.

The car was sitting in the parking lot of the Texas Workforce Commission building, located off of Stemmons Freeway. The windows were cracked, police said, but the engine was turned off. An observant parking lot security guard noticed the 2-year-old child and immediately called 911 for help.

According to authorities, the child had been inside of the hot car for about five or seven minutes. At the time of the incident, about 3:00 p.m. Monday, the temperature in Dallas was 105 degrees.

The mother has been identified as Gloria Arellano. She has been charged with child endangerment.
