Sandra Clara McClary was charged with child neglect and reckless
endangerment, Anne Arundel County police said in a statement this
evening.
The woman had called police after they had posted the baby's photo on
social media, Lt. T.J. Smith of the Anne Arundel County Police said at a
news conference earlier yesterday.
The woman, who was verified as the baby's mother, initially told
investigators the little girl's father was supposed to have her, but
neither of them knew where the child was, police said.
Investigators later determined that the mother had allegedly had the
girl with her in a vehicle in Pasadena, but removed the child from the
vehicle and left her on the side of the road, police said.
The incident began just before midnight Saturday, when officers
responded to a report of an abandoned child on the side of a road, the
police department said on its Facebook page Sunday morning.
Officers found a baby girl in a car seat carrier. Police said the baby was 2 or 3 months old.
"Scuff marks on the carrier and other debris indicate that the carrier
may have fell off of a moving vehicle," the police wrote in the post.
The child was taken to a hospital to be treated for dehydration, police said.
The baby was in good condition Sunday, Smith said at the news
conference, adding that the baby was in the custody of the Department of
Social Services.
The investigation is ongoing, police said this afternoon. The police
department is working with the Anne Arundel County State's Attorney's
Office.
