A man is facing child cruelty charges after his 13-month-old daughter was found alone in a tent in the Occupy DC camp at McPherson Square.
Occupy members told authorities that a baby was alone in a tent at about 10 a.m. Wednesday, said Sgt. David Schlosser, a U.S. Park Police spokesman. Officers found the girl alone in the tent with no adults around. The baby had been alone for at least half an hour, Schlosser said.
A man returned to the park while police were investigating and said he was the baby's father, Schlosser said. The man was charged with attempted second-degree cruelty to children. Schlosser would not release the man's name, saying doing so could identify the child.

It was raining and the temperature was in the mid-40s when officers found the baby, Schlosser said. He said emergency responders examined the girl, who was found to be healthy.
Schlosser said he didn't know whether the man arrested was part of the Occupy DC contingent.

You actually make it seem really easy with your presentation however I in finding this topic to be actually something that I think I'd never understand. It kind of feels too complex and extremely vast for me. I'm having a look ahead for your subsequent post, I will attempt to get the grasp of it!
