A McPherson woman is charged with endangering her children after leaving two girls alone in a parked car.

Captain Chris Trocheck tells KSAL News that a Wal-Mart shopper returned to his car Thursday evening at 9:30pm and called police after noticing that an 8-year-old girl and a 1-year-old girl were left alone in the vehicle parked next to his.

Officers waited 30-minutes at the car while the woman shopped inside the store, and then arrested 31-year-old Eunice S. Sanchez for endangering a child.

The two girls were placed in the care of their grandmother.
