During a rare Houston snowstorm, two infant babies were found on a public sidewalk with their mother, who appeared intoxicated. As reported by Click2Houston, deputies from the Harris County Sheriff's Office had to quickly respond today to the scene at 12062 Veterans Memorial Drive, where the children were discovered suffering from cold-related injuries. The children, one aged 1 year and the other just 2 months old, were treated by EMS teams who arrived shortly after the deputies.
FOX26 Houston confirmed the children's ages and detailed the conditions of their discovery, reporting that the mother showed clear signs of intoxication when found. It is unclear whether charges will be filed against her or what level of care she may need to recover from her exposure to the cold. The condition of the infants after their rescue is also unknown at this time.
The incident has raised concerns about the children's safety and the events leading to their abandonment in extreme weather. The incident happened near Veterans Memorial Drive and Antoine Drive, and this detail has been shared with the public to gather more information.
