Edgewater mother and boyfriend arrested after leaving 2-year-old in car while they sat at a bar

Tuesday night, Edgewater Police arrested a mother and her boyfriend after they left a 2-year-old in their car while they enjoyed some drinks at a bar.

Kristina Vitucci and her boyfriend Joshua Harris left the child in an unlocked vehicle for over two hours outside of Jan & Lib's Hi-Tops Lounge.

According to the police report, the car was not running, and the child was screaming, crying and cold to the touch as the child was not in suitable clothes for the weather. 

Vitucci and Harris were both arrested for child neglect.

Harris was detained as he started to get "loud and aggressive" and Vitucci was detained as she "did not follow multiple commands to stop standing up and trying to walk away from the scene.", according to the report.

This story will be updated as more details are released.
