SEMINOLE COUNTY, Fla. —

A Seminole County woman is facing charges after allegedly shoplifting at a store while two of her children were left in the car.

Thursday, deputies responded to a Target in Lake Mary around 5 p.m. regarding reports of shoplifting.

According to an arrest report, Latasha Brooks, 31, had one of her children with her when she went into Target and left two of her other children alone in the car.

The arrest report states, "The car was off while two of the children were sitting inside waiting for their mother to come back out."

Brooks is accused of scanning only some items during self-checkout at the store and failing to pay for the rest.

The Seminole County Sheriff's Office said Brooks is facing multiple charges, including neglecting children without great bodily harm, contributing to the delinquency of a minor and petit theft.

The shoplifting isn't the issue they have here, it's the "leaving children in the car in Florida in September" that raises issue. Nobody needs education to know not to do this, they know it's bad but convince themselves it's "not that bad" then as soon as they get back in the car blast the AC because they can't stand to be in it for 2 seconds
