A man was arrested for child endangerment last week after getting caught doing stunts with a 3-year-old boy inside his vehicle.
It happened on April 12 around 10:05 p. m. , when officials at the domain of Highland Avenue and Sterling Avenue in San Bernardino saw about 100 cars parked in the parking lot of a shuttered business, a member of the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department said. Let’s say there were 50 to 100 pedestrians walking through the parking lot at the time.
“A black GMC Sierra, later found to be driving through Alex Sanchez, was observed deliberately accelerating his vehicle to a top speed,” he said. “Sanchez spun the tyres and deliberately forced the rear tyres to lose grip with the ground. This caused the vehicle to spin uncontrollably and put surrounding pedestrians at risk. “
Officers arrested Sanchez and found that he had performed the stunt with a 3-year-old boy in the back seat of the car and was not restrained through a car seat.
Sanchez, 21, arrested and taken into custody for child endangerment. He was released on unspecified bail. He does not yet have a scheduled court date.
Anyone with more information about the incident is asked to contact investigators at (909) 387-3545.
