When a woman in Detroit, Michigan saw a boy in the window of a nearby abandoned house, she wasn’t sure what was going on in there. And when police raided the house, they got a shock.
Recently, while the police were searching an abandoned Detroit, Michigan house for drugs, they discovered the awful truth. This house was completely empty of drug, but it did contain something even more startling.
Inside the abandoned house were seven children, from as young as a few months old to as old as nine. They were living in total misery. The house had no water and no heat although it was chilly outside.
In addition, police found two guns and a dead dog.
Not believing their eyes, the police sent the children to the hospital to be checked out.
According to a neighbor, she saw a few weeks before the police investigated.
“I seen a little boy. I don’t know how old he was—maybe about five or six—in the window. He had no shirt on and I just know it was cold that day. I just said, ‘wow,’ but I didn’t know. I haven’t seen nobody in a while,” neighbor Diana Dupree told Fox2.
Luckily, the children were in relatively good health and will now be placed in foster care.
Meanwhile, police arrested their father, while their mother remains at large.
Child abu$e is never okay and it’s sad to see how these children have been treated.
However, I’m extremely relieved because the children are in good health after the terrible time they must have had in the abandoned house. I hope that they’ll get a new, loving, home so they can finally get the lives that they deserve.
