A Long Island couple was busted for allegedly leaving their baby in a car in freezing temperatures while they shopped, police said.
Police responded to a 911 call of a baby unattended in a car that was turned off at the Target on Sunrise Highway in Bay Shore at around 4:20 p.m. Saturday, according to the Suffolk County Police Department.
The baby’s parents, Paul Albinagorta, 34, and Natalia Pascual, 22, returned to the car 10 minutes later, police said. After investigation, both were arrested.
The child was transported to Good Samaritan Hospital Medical Center in West Islip for observation and then released into the custody of a family member.
