Miami mom taken into custody for leaving 2-year-old at home alone, cops say

A mother was taken into custody after being suspected of leaving her 2-year-old child alone in a Miami apartment building.

Randeshia Coats, 39, was arrested Tuesday on a charge of child negligence with no grave bodily harm, according to documents.

According to the arrest record, cops were called to the building after a witness noticed the 2-year-old wandering around.

When the authorities came, they checked the apartment and discovered no one else inside.

Coats was eventually apprehended and placed into jail.

The 2-year-old was taken into custody by the Department of Children and Families, according to court documents filed Wednesday.

A judge granted Coats pre-trial services with an alternate bond of $2,500 and ordered only supervised visits with her child.
