A Florida mother was arrested and charged after a police officer noticed a baby and a toddler by themselves in an unlocked car parked outside a bar.

Jamie Leigh Gunn, 33, was charged with child neglect and booked in the Brevard County Jail Sunday, according to West Melbourne Police.

The vehicle doors were unlocked, and the vehicle was running, police said.

Police located Gunn, the vehicle’s registered owner, inside the bar visiting a friend. An investigation revealed she had been inside the bar for at least 20 minutes while “having no regard for her children who were left unattended,” police wrote on Facebook.

“When Gunn learned law enforcement was outside with her vehicle, she was more concerned about going to jail, than the welfare of her children,” the police department wrote.
