Orlando, FL – Elvin Garcia was taken into custody Saturday evening after a neighbor called 911 to report seeing the man’s 18-month-old child sipping beer from bottles and cans scattered across the front yard.
“There were bottles around the front porch and he was just picking them up, drinking out of them,” said eyewitness Debbie Robinson.
Garcia had apparently passed out, leaving Junior to fend for himself. Neighbors claim the child was alone outside for hours.
“They [police] could see him [Garcia] in the trailer there with his legs hanging out the door…just passed out I guess,” said Robinson.
After waking Garcia from his drunken slumber, officers placed him under arrest. The 28-year-old man is now facing charges of child neglect.
The boy has been taken into custody by DCF, which said the boy was living in “deplorable conditions,” and the Juvenile Justice Center will now determine who will take custody of the child.
