Indianapolis Strip Clubs: Panhandling parents found across US
Police received several calls Sunday from concerned drivers who saw the father holding the toddler alongside the road at Thompson and Emerson.
In one of the 911 calls, a driver described what she saw.
“And this kid he is like trying to hold on to the kid and this kid is screaming ballistically and trying to wiggle out of his arms,” she said.
Police say the toddler was sunburned, sick and on the verge of heat exhaustion.
Cotton along with the girl’s mother, 23-year-old Lindsay Ramon, are charged with child neglect.
Cotton told reporters from jail, “I was trying to get gas money to go back to Bloomington and I had my daughter with me trying to get gas money and I got arrested.”
He claims all the money Ramon made as a stripper over the weekend was stolen.
