3 Children Found Malnourished In NYC Home: Reports

NEW YORK CITY — A mother and her boyfriend have been arrested after police found three kids who were malnourished inside a Brooklyn home, according to multiple media reports.

Police were called to an apartment on Linden Street in Bushwick on Tuesday after a relative of the boyfriend found the children unattended —with one of the children, a 3-year-old boy, tied to a bed, the New York Post reported.

Two girls – a 6-year-old and a 10-month-old – were also left unattended in the home.

The three children were transported to Wyckoff Heights Medical Center, and were listed in stable condition.

Charges are pending for the 25-year-old mother and 26-year-old boyfriend, police said.

The city’s Administration for Children’s Services have launched an investigation into the incident as of Wednesday evening.
