Police, an ambulance and the Department of Social Development were called to the Park Place apartments on Hickey Road around 1:30 this afternoon after two young children under the age of 5 were found left alone in what could be described as unsanitary and unsafe conditions.
A neighbor called police after hearing the children screaming in the apartment. They were found without proper clothing--one with a dirty diaper--and were taken to hospital to be examined.
The Family Protection Unit is on the scene and investigating.
