Heather Adkins of Shelbyville, Indiana is accused of abandoning her son, who has autism and is non-verbal, in Ohio.
Adkins is accused of abandoning her non-verbal 5-year-old son in Colerain Township, Ohio, about 75 miles from their home of Shelbyville, Indiana.
Ronald Reese was headed out to pick up food Thursday night when he found Adkins' son, saying he looked like he was in a daze as he walked along a busy road with no sidewalks.The child is now in the custody of Hamilton County Jobs and Family Services in Ohio. Darin Allgood, assistant chief of police in Georgetown, Ohio, said Adkins was arrested this weekend at a gas station in Georgetown for an unpaid fine dating back to 2011."I'm angered. If you didn't want to deal with your son, take him to the nearest relative that you think is fit to care for him," Reese said.
"I have a child that's nonverbal, as well, and I think about him being alone? That's very sad," another neighbor said.She told WKYT she did it to"save" the boy from herself.
