COLLEGE STATION, Texas — College Station Police have arrested a woman whose child was wandering alone around 8 a.m. on Wednesday morning.
According to police, Luna Conwill, 24, was at work when a Brazos County Sheriff's Office Deputy spotted her three year-old child alone at The Ivy apartments, at 1201 Harvey Road.
According to a police report, the child was only wearing a diaper at the time that the Brazos County Sheriff's Office Deputy spotted the child. She had also found her way out of Conwill's apartment due to the door being unlocked.
The case was later handed off to College Station Police, who later arrested Conwill after she had returned home. Conwill told police that she had an agreement with a neighbor to watch her child while she was at work, sometimes from 4 a.m. to 8 a.m., and sometimes from 6:30 a.m. to 8 a.m.
However, on the day of the incident, Conwill had gone to work just before 7 a.m., and still had not returned home by 10 a.m., according to a police report. When police entered her unlocked apartment, they found marijuana scattered around the residence.
Police say the child has been safely released to a family member.
According to jail records, Conwill has been arrested and charged with abandoning/endangerment of a child and possession of marijuana. Her bond is set at $2,000.
