Houston Mother Charged After Being Found Intoxicated in Snow With Two Infants

The children, aged 2 months and 1 year, suffered cold-related injuries during a historic winter storm in Texas.

A Houston mother was discovered lying on a snowy sidewalk with her 2-month-old and 1-year-old children during freezing temperatures on Tuesday morning.
The Harris County Sheriff's Office reported that both infants were treated for cold-related injuries by emergency responders at the scene.
The mother showed signs of intoxication, and an open alcoholic beverage was found nearby, according to authorities.
The rare winter storm, named Enzo, brought historic snowfall and freezing temperatures to the Houston area, with up to four inches of snow reported in some areas.
Local officials have charged the mother with child endangerment, though further details about the family's condition remain unclear.
