A mother has been arrested after a young child called 911 to report he and six other kids had been left alone in a hot car, according to authorities.

The call came in to dispatchers in Charles County, Maryland around 1 p.m. on Friday, the sheriff's office said in a press release. The child didn’t know where they were, but the operator was able to pinpoint the location of the vehicle to the St. Charles Towne Center, according to the statement.

Officers found seven children between the ages of 2 and 4 in the vehicle with the windows rolled up and the car not running. Shortly after the children were removed from the car and treated at the scene, the driver arrived.

According to the sheriff's office, the unnamed 37-year-old woman had been shopping inside the mall for at least 20 minutes.

1. I can't hardly stand to leave my furry girl in car--even in shade less than 60 degrees and cloudy

Obviously with windows cracked. Driving cross country is especially challenging as I dread having to stop to use the restroom.

I find myself running out every few minutes, just to be sure.

How the hell could a Mother do this? How could ANYONE?

2. Seven kids ages 2-4?

Two sets of twins and one of triplets? Neighbors' kids?

She shops at a mall while locking kids in a hot car? I hope she gets a long sentence and goes on a list of sociopaths or other people to whom you cannot entrust your children.

3. Babysitting! & 2 are her own

Doubt if her pay will cover the fines

The woman is the mother of two of the children and was babysitting the others, according to the sheriff’s office. She was arrested and charged with confinement of children inside a motor vehicle, but may face additional charges

The penalty for leaving children unattended is as much as $500 in fines, 30 days in jail, or both, according to Maryland state law.

4. I think it should be 30 days for each child.

Seven months is something she won't forget anytime soon.
