DAD LEAVES SON IN TRUCK WHILE GETTING DRUNK IN STRIP CLUB

INDIANAPOLIS — Police say they've arrested an Indiana truck driver who went drinking at a strip club after leaving his 5-year-old son in his semitrailer watching cartoons.

An Indianapolis police report says 39-year-old Donald Crawford was arrested early Tuesday on child neglect and public intoxication charges after reporting his truck stolen and son missing. Police said he forgot where he parked.

The boy was found watching a television inside the truck's cab. Police said the keys were in the ignition and the doors were unlocked in a high-crime area of Indianapolis.

The man, from nearby Franklin, was taken to the Marion County jail. Jail records showed he wasn't being held early Thursday, and repeated calls to jail offices seeking details rang unanswered.

In the first paragraph, the writer states the kid was left in a semitrailer. In the second paragraph, the he states the kid was left in the cab of the truck.

There's a HUGE difference between a semitrailer and the cab of a truck.

Having said that.....I hope they they throw the book at him. (The trucker....not the writer).

HAPPY THANKSGIVING
