CANTON, OH - A man captured photos that apparently show two parents who overdosed on heroin in a Canton parking lot outside of an overheated car where a child was rescued.
Eric Asher shared the photos on Facebook which have now gained well over 140,000 reactions.
"Well lord put us at the right place at the right time herion overdose baby trapped n car me n my baby busted baby out waiting for help what’s this world coming to," Asher wrote on his post.
Stark County sheriff's deputies were dispatched to the parking lot of the Busy Beaver on Whipple Avenue after reports of two people lying on the ground from a possible overdose, according to WEWS.
When the first deputy arrived on the scene, a man, Cody Powell, was lying on the ground on his back. He appeared to be pale, was turning blue and was not breathing, according to the deputy's report. A woman, Michelle Hall, was lying on top of him by his legs.
Canton firefighters assessed the baby, and she was also taken to Mercy Medical Center for further evaluation.
Warrants were obtained for Powell's and Hall's arrests for an endangering children charge, WEWS reported.
Child Protective Services in Stark County was notified of the incident. CPS told deputies that both suspects had an open case out of Mahoning County, prompting authorities to contact CPS there. Mahoning County CPS confirmed this and went to the hospital to take temporary custody of the baby, according to officials.
Both suspects were booked on Wednesday after being arrested for endangering children charges.
They are due in court next week, according to WEWS.
