A woman in Florida encountered an unexpected scene on Friday afternoon when she noticed a dog roaming her front yard and discovered a little girl unattended, sitting on a chair in her carport. This incident led to the arrest of the child’s mother, 27-year-old Aquania Aleshia Estes, and her 29-year-old boyfriend, Pitrez Floyd.

Upon finding the child and the dog outside her Deltona residence, the concerned neighbor contacted the Volusia County Sheriff’s Office around 4:30 p.m. on Friday, according to a press release.

Per deputies, the girl told the neighbor she was “hot, thirsty and hungry.” She brought the girl food, water, toys and clean clothes as deputies tried to find her parents. Cops posted body camera footage of deputies’ interaction with the girl.

“You don’t know if you live nearby here?,” a deputy asked.

The girl said she wasn’t sure.

“You don’t? You don’t know mommy and daddy’s name?,” the deputy responded.

She gave cops the name “Quana.”

“Why did mommy and daddy drop you off by yourself,” the deputy queried.

The girl said: “They had to go somewhere.”

She didn’t know when they’d be coming back.

“Mommy and daddy needed to go charge their cell phones,” the child told deputies according to an arrest affidavit obtained by local Fox affiliate WOFL.

She also said she did not attend school.

Cops tracked down Estes and Floyd some nine hours later, the press release said. Body camera footage showed deputies were incredulous at the situation.

“You leave your kid on the side of the f—in’ road?” a deputy asked.
